When individuals discuss “humanistic theory,” they most closely mean:
  1. Trusting the client unconditionally, no matter what is said
  2. Recognizing the client as a human being with full potential and capability
  3. Behavior is controlled mainly by instinct and modification is difficult
  4. An understanding that humans are not perfect and that the client could relapse
Explanation
Answer - B - Humanistic practitioners like Carl Rogers believed in recognizing the client’s full potential and capabilities, which often means trusting that the client is leading the therapist in the right direction, even when there is conflicting information. This might be especially difficult, since training and thought processes don’t always follow the same pattern in that regard.
