〰 Humanism & Psychology 〰
WEEK 5
Objectives:
Identify impetus for and assumptions of humanism
Articulate Rogers views on self concept, development and defensive behaviour
Explain Maslows hierarchy of needs and summarise his findings on self-actualizing people
Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the humanistic approach

Behaviourism & Psychoanalysis were unappealing to many & argument was that both
schools dehumanised. They were criticised bc they argued ppl not in control of their own
emotions.
What is Humanism ?
- An approach in psychology that recognises the individual playing an
active role in the effort to achieve their potential (self actualisation)
- Emphasises the unique qualities of humans especially their freedom.
- Emphasises that individual needs be studied as a whole, with
recognition of the importance of people's subjective experience of
themselves (their self-concept)

, Humanism:
- Theories by Carl Rogers & Abraham Maslow.
- Rogers = behaviour governed by each individuals sense of self / self
concept.
- Both maintained: to fully understand peoples behaviour, psychologists
must take into account the fundamental drive toward personal growth.
- Asserted: all people have a basic need to fulfilt their potential & argued
that many psychological disturbances are the result of thwarting these
uniquely human needs.
- Both believed:
- People can rise above primitive animal heritage
- People are largely conscious & rational beings, not dominated by
unconscious, irrational conflicts.
- People are not helpess pawns to deterministic forces.

- L.d Holdstick argued thay psych needed to become more sensitive to the
African population. 2 yrs later the early form of critical psychology
manifested in SA, allowing for acadmeic engagement w previously taboo
racial topics.

Theory of Motivation:
● Abraham Harold Maslow (1908-1970)
○ A very optimistic view of the person - focuses on healthy
functioning.
○ Emphasizes human potential - an individuals ultimate goal is to
achieve their full potential.
○ Focuses on understanding why some people are exceptional / self
actualizers. (*Why some & not all, How did they do it?)
○ Self actualization is the motive that underlies all behaviour.
(Desire to fulfil potential)
○ Maslow: Behaviour can be explained in terms of need gratification
(needs & the desire to satisfy) - the basis of growth.
○ These needs & the need to gratify, drives humans towards
self-actualization.
○ Depend on the environment for need gratification.
○ Basic human needs are arranged in a hierarchy:
