The Humanistic Approach
The humanistic Approach. Introduction to the humanistic Approach. Carl Rogers. Abraham Maslow. Existential Psychology. Extending the humanistic Approach
http://www.ryerson.ca/~glassman/humanist.html

Extractions: The Humanistic Approach Introduction to the Humanistic Approach Carl Rogers Abraham Maslow Existential Psychology ... Publications Related to the Humanistic Approach The Humanistic Approach began in response to concerns by therapists against perceived limitations of Psychodynamic theories, especially psychoanalysis. Individuals like Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow felt existing (psychodynamic) theories failed to adequately address issues like the meaning of behavior, and the nature of healthy growth. However, the result was not simply new variations on psychodynamic theory, but rather a fundamentally new approach. There are several factors which distinguish the Humanistic Approach from other approaches within psychology, including the emphasis on subjective meaning, a rejection of determinism , and a concern for positive growth rather than pathology. While one might argue that some psychodynamic theories provide a vision of healthy growth (including Jung's concept of individuation ), the other characteristics distinguish the Humanistic Approach from every other approach within psychology (and sometimes lead theorists from other approaches to say the Humanistic Approach is not a science at all). Most psychologists believe that behavior can only be understood objectively (by an impartial observer), but the humanists argue that this results in concluding that an individual is incapable of understanding their own behaviora view which they see as both paradoxical and dangerous to well-being. Instead, humanists like Rogers argue that the meaning of behavior is essentially personal and subjective; they further argue that accepting this idea is not unscientific, because ultimately all individuals are subjective: what makes science reliable is not that scientists are purely objective, but that the nature of observed events can be agreed upon by different observers (a process Rogers calls

http://www.sonoma.edu/users/w/warmotha/awhumpsy.html

Extractions: Past President, Association for Humanistic Psychology There were many aspects to humanistic psychology. There was a dialectic relationship between the Europe-oriented human scientists and existential psychoanalysts on the one hand, and the American self psychologists, including Maslow, Rogers, Clark Moustakas, and James F. T. Bugental on the other. There was a thoroughgoing revolution in the practice of psychotherapy, which added a wide range of group process, somatic, and non-verbal approaches to the therapist's repertoire. From the point of view of the social sciences, there were three essential characteristics to the humanistic movement: 1. An epistemology that admits the centrality of human experience as basic data. 2. An emphasis on holistic theoretical models. 3. An advocacy of value-based and value-affirming social science.
Carl Rogers
A brief personal history and synopsis of his humanistic theory.
http://www.ship.edu/~cgboeree/rogers.html

Extractions: CARL ROGERS Dr. C. George Boeree Biography Carl Rogers was born January 8, 1902 in Oak Park, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, the fourth of six children. His father was a successful civil engineer and his mother was a housewife and devout Christian. His education started in the second grade, because he could already read before kindergarten. When Carl was 12, his family moved to a farm about 30 miles west of Chicago, and it was here that he was to spend his adolescence. With a strict upbringing and many chores, Carl was to become rather isolated, independent, and self-disciplined. He went on to the University of Wisconsin as an agriculture major. Later, he switched to religion to He was offered a full professorship at Ohio State in 1940. In 1942, he wrote his first book, Counseling and Psychotherapy. Then, in 1945, he was invited to set up a counseling center at the University of Chicago. It was while working there that in 1951 he published his major work, Client-Centered Therapy, wherein he outlines his basic theory. In 1957, he returned to teach at his alma mater, the University of Wisconsisn. Unfortunately, it was a time of conflict within their psychology department, and Rogers became very disillusioned with higher education. In 1964, he was happy to accept a research position in La Jolla, California. He provided therapy, gave speeches, and wrote, until his death in 1987.

A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be.
http://www.ibpsychology.com/IB07/Humanistic.html

Extractions: "A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be. This is the need we may call self-actualization ... It refers to man's desire for fulfillment, namely to the tendency for him to become actually in what he is potentially: to become everything that one is capable of becoming ..." From the IB Introduction Humanistic psychology emerged as a third force during the late 1950’s in the United States as an alternative to the deterministic orientations of behaviourism and psychoanalysis. There was a powerful element of European existentialism and phenomenology present in the earliest years of development, but humanistic psychology has now developed into an eclectic movement that attracts a diverse range of theorists. Humanistic psychology’s emphasis on the possibility of personal growth and change found immediate acceptance. The methodology applied by humanistic psychologists tends to use alternatives to those focusing on quantification and scientific rigour, but often produces useful data. The humanistic perspective is not applied universally, perhaps because of its emphasis on the individual and its optimistic view of human potential. Essential Questions (Learning Outcomes): Describe and evaluate relevant theories and empirical studies related to humanistic psychology Explain how cultural, ethical, gender, and methodological considerations affect the interpretation of behaviour in humanistic psychology and health psychology.

http://imet.csus.edu/imet3/drbonnie/personalitywebq/humanistic.html

Extractions: Introduction Overview Part 1 Part 2 ... Evaluation The Humanistic perspective offers a very positive viewpoint of human nature and potential. Emphasizing the personal worth of each individual, this perspective suggests that we are each responsible for our own happiness and well-being as humans. We have the innate capacity for self-actualization which is our unique desire to achieve our highest potential as people. Where did such a positive perspective originate? One of the origins of the humanistic perspective is the philosophy of existentialism . In simple terms, existentialism is concerned with defining the meaning of human existence. Without getting too complicated, "existentialism is about life. Existentialists believe in living and in fighting for life. Camus, Sartre, and even Nietzsche were involved in various wars because they believed passionately in fighting for the survival of their nations and peoples. The politics of existentialists varies, but each seeks the most individual freedom for people within a society" ( http://www.tameri.com/csw/exist/).

Extractions: Psychology Areas Cognition Development Disorder Emotion ... Social Approaches Behavioral Biological Cognitive Evolutionary Humanistic Psychodynamic Humanistic psychology emerged in the in reaction to both behaviorism and psychoanalysis . It is concerned with the subjective experience of human beings, and views using quantitative methods in the study of the human mind and behaviour as misguided. This is in direct contrast to cognitivism (which aims to apply the scientific method to the study of psychology), an approach of which humanistic psychology has been strongly critical. Instead, the discipline stresses a phenomenological view of human experience, seeking to understand human beings and their behavior by conducting qualitative research The humanistic approach has its roots in existentialist thought (see Kierkegaard Nietzsche Heidegger , and Sartre ). The founding theorists behind this school of thought are Abraham Maslow , who presented a " hierarchy of needs Carl Rogers , who created and developed ' Person centred psychotherapy ' and Fritz and Laura Perls who helped create and develop Gestalt therapy . Gestalt psychologists claim to consider behaviour holistically Karl Popper have presented forceful arguments against the proposition that entities can be apprehended as wholes.

http://academics.tjhsst.edu/psych/oldPsych/personality/humanistic.html

Extractions: During the first half of the twentieth century, American psychology was dominated by two schools of thought: behaviorism and psychoanalysis. Neither fully acknowledged the possibility of studying values, intentions and meaning as elements in conscious existence. Although various European perspectives such as phenomenology had a slight amonunt of influence, on the whole mainstream American psychology had been captured by the mechanistic beliefs of behaviorism and by the biological reductionism and determinism of classical psychoanalysis. The Development of the "Third Force" The "Second Force" emerged from Freudian psychoanalysis and the depth psychologies of Alfred Adler, Erich Fromm, Karen Horney, Carl Jung and others. These theorists focused on the dynamic unconscious and the depths of the human psyche whose contents. They proposed subconsious thoughts need to be integrated with those of the conscious mind in order to produce a healthy human personality . The founders of the depth psychologies believed that human behavior is principally determined by what occurs in the unconscious mind. So, where the behaviorists ignored consciousness because they felt that its essential privacy and subjectivity rendered it inaccessible to scientific study, the depth psychologists tended to regard it as the relatively superficial expression of unconscious drives. By the late 1950's a "Third Force" was beginning to form. In 1957 and 1958, at the invitation of Abraham Maslow and Clark Moustakas, two meetings were held in Detroit among psychologists who were interested in establishing a professional association dedicated to a more humanistic vision. They discussed several themes such as self, self-actualization, health, creativity, intrinsic nature, being, becoming, individuality, and meaning, all of which they believed were likely to become central concerns of such an approach to psychology. In 1961, with the sponsorship of Brandeis University, this movement was formally launched as the American Association for Humanistic Psychology. The first issue of the Journal of Humanistic Psychology appeared in the Spring of 1961.

http://www.infed.org/biblio/learning-humanistic.htm

Extractions: ideas thinkers practice A great deal of the theoretical writing about adult education in the 1970s and 1980s drew on humanistic psychology. In this orientation the basic concern is for the human potential for growth. As Mark Tennant notes, the concern with ‘self’ is ‘a hallmark of humanistic psychology’ (1997: 12). There was a reaction against ‘scientific’ reductionism – people being treated as objects and rationalism. Instead the affective and subjective world was to be reaffirmed. Personal freedom, choice, motivations and feelings had to have their place. Perhaps the best known example is Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of motivation. At the lowest level are physiological needs, at the highest self actualization. Only when the lower needs are met is it possible to fully move on to the next level. A motive at the lower level is always stronger than those at higher levels. Tennant (1997) summarizes these as follows: Level one: Physiological needs such as hunger, thirst, sex, sleep, relaxation and bodily integrity must be satisfied before the next level comes into play.

http://simplypsychology.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/humanistic.html

Extractions: addthis_url = location.href; addthis_title = document.title; addthis_pub = 'saulmcleod'; Humanistic, humanism and humanist are terms in psychology relating to an approach which studies the whole person, and the uniqueness of each individual. Essentially, these terms refer the same approach in psychology. Humanism is a psychological approach that emphasises the study of the whole person. Humanistic psychologists look at human behaviour not only through the eyes of the observer, but through the eyes of the person doing the behaving. Humanistic psychologists believe that an individual's behaviour is connected to his inner feelings and self-image. Humanism rejected the assumption of the behaviourist approach which is characterised as deterministic, focused on reinforcement of stimulus-response behaviour and heavily dependent on animal research. Humanistic psychology also rejected the psychodynamic approach because it also is deterministic, with unconscious irrational and instinctive forces determining human thought and behaviour. Both behaviourism and psychoanalysis are regarded as dehumanising by humanistic psychologists.
