A Theory of Human Motivation

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the development of a positive theory of motivation, this work integrates insights from clinical experience with established psychological frameworks. It aligns with the functionalist traditions of James and Dewey while incorporating holism from figures like Wertheimer and Goldstein, as well as dynamic elements from Freud and Adler. The resulting synthesis is termed a 'general-dynamic' theory, aiming to meet both theoretical expectations and empirical observations in the field of psychology.
