Answer:

c. humanists

Step-by-step explanation:

Humanistic Psychology emerged in the 1950s and gained momentum in the 1960s and 1970s, as a reaction to the ideas of behavior-only analysis advocated by Behaviorism and the focus on the unconscious and its determinism advocated by Psychoanalysis.

The great divergence with Behaviorism is that Humanism does not accept the idea of the human being as a machine or animal, subject to the conditioning processes. In relation to psychoanalysis, the reaction was to the emphasis placed on the unconscious, the biological questions and past events, the neuroses, psychoses and the division of its human into compartments.

In humanistic psychology, Carl Rogers was one of the first names and creators of this strand, but other prominent names can be cited as Abraham Maslow and Rollo May.
