In 1950s and 1950s another model of psychology has emerged named as Humanistic Model. It rejects the apraich that behavior is determined by the automatic forced and unconscious. According to this Model, people have control on their own lives and they have ability to make decisions about their own selves.
It aims to understand the values of individual and group and also people's needs and goals, and gap between their potential and the fulfillment of those needs and goals.
Abraham Maslow was the founder of Humanistic Model and it became officially part of APA in 1972. Maslow presented a heirarchy of human needs. He placed biological needs of physical survival in the bottom and self actualization at the top of the heirarchy.
