His first achievement was to differentiate two classes of people according to attitude types: extraverted (outward- looking) and introverted (inward-looking). Later he differentiated four functions of the mind—thinking, feeling, sensation, and intuition—one or more of which predominate in any given person.

Behavior is learned and can be reinforced or modified. One’s personality is a result of the interaction between an individual and their environment Focused on observable and measurable behavior rather than mental or emotional behaviors.

Coined the term "Behaviorism" in 1913. He derived much of his thinking from Pavlov's animal studies (classical conditioning). Aspects of Watson's theory: He opposed mentalistic concepts He used contiguity to explain learning He considered emotion to be just another example of classical conditioning He rejected the notion of individual differences He thought complex behaviors came about through combinations of identifiable reflexes He was a chief proponent of "nurture" and believed that all human differences were the result of learning He believed that practice strengthens learning
31
Existential Perspective – stresses self-fulfillment and the importance of consciousness, self- awareness, and the ability to make choices. Individuals have free will and we can actively develop ourselves to our highest potential and reach self-actualization.
32
In the 1950’s through 1960’s, Carl Rogers believed that “self-actualization” was the way to live a genuine life and that treatment must be client- centered. Self-actualization is the need to become what one believes he or she is capable of being. Used Maslow’s ideas and stated self-actualization is a constant growth process that is nurtured in a growth-promoting climate.
33
To help someone reach self-actualization, there are two conditions that need to be met: Growth is nurtured when an individual is being genuine open/revealing about themselves Growth is nurtured through acceptance and acceptance from others.
34
Introduced a Hierarchy of Needs that stated basic needs must be met before higher level needs can be realized. He was a psychologist who originally presented his Hierarchy of Needs as a theory in a paper in 1943 titled A Theory of Human Motivation. Unlike other psychologists, Maslow focused on studying “exemplary people” instead of people with mental illness. In his research, he spent much of his time studying the healthiest one percent of college students.
37
Founded by Fredrick Perls Based on the idea that perceptions are more than the sums of their parts. It focuses on the here and now. He claims what someone is feeling or perceiving, or what is happening at the time, is more important than what should be or could be.
38
Focuses on the function of thoughts in determining behavior. It is based on information processing for the brain and that faulty processing or thinking locks a person into dark, inflexible ways of thinking and behaving.
39
Reality for each person is created through communication with others and is a type of communication therapy. This theory emphasizes that the choice, use and order of words influences one’s perceptions of their own experiences.
40
Neuropsycholog Neuropsychology individuals are chemically treated to behave in particular ways due to genetic makeup. Psychopharmacology Psychopharmacology is the use of drugs to help maintain more “normal” neurology.
