My subject is a girl around 20 years old. She only eats Mexican food and dislikes most American stuff.
Comments for Paper 8 (Humanistic Theories)
Do not just summarize the theoryapply it to your subject.
Provide specific examples. This means you should avoid generalizing; in other words, dont describe your
subject as always doing such and such, or constantly being this or that.
Paragraph 1 (Maslows Theory):
State which need level your subject is at in his/her current life.
Determine need level based on symptoms listed in the lecture (fear, loneliness,
inadequacy, boredom, etc.).
Describe symptoms of the chosen need level.
Provide a specific example of an instance when the subject exhibited one of the symptoms of their
need level.
Note: this paragraph should be about page long.
Paragraph 2 (Rogers Theory):
State if your subject is self-actualized or not (HINT: he/she probably is not).
If you did not state that your subjects need level is on Self-actualization for Maslows
theory, then you cannot state that your subject is on the upper path for Rogers theory.
You must be consistent within your paper.
State which pathway your subject follows (upper or lower).
If the subject is self-actualized, describe the progression of the upper path. Use a behavioral
example to illustrate the theory and explain how these examples fit the theory.
Need for positive regard unconditional positive regard internalized/self-accepting
congruent personality self-actualization.
If the subject is not self-actualized, describe the progression along the lower path. Use a
behavioral example to illustrate the theory and explain how these examples fit the theory.
Need for positive regard conditions of worth internalized fragmented personality
description of Ideal self and Self use denial/repression of real self to be the ideal
self prevents self-actualization example of what the subject could have been if
he/she had self-actualized.
Hint: Be specific and thorough when describing the progression of the lower or upper path. There
are a lot of points at stake! Do not just regurgitate the lecture but find an example from the
subjects life to show how the theory fits!
Note: this paragraph should be about 1 page long.
