Topic 4.4
How could one critique Carl Rogers' Humanist Theory?
It doesn't acknowledge humans have a basic need for personal growth and actualization.
It can be considered over-optimistic about people’s ability for self-growth given challenging life circumstances.
It ignores influences from our environment, blaming everything on internal factors alone.
Its emphasis on unconditional positive regard promotes inappropriate behaviors by not setting boundaries or expectations for individuals’ actions.
