ABSTRACT
Individuals are unique The humanist movement in psychology has the idea that individuals are unique, moulded by the experiences that they have. As we all have different experiences, we are all unique. Everyone has their own potential to fulfil
their capabilities, and this needs nurturing by ourselves and by others. As a result, no two individuals are the same. This is one of the main reasons why humanism emerged as both the behaviourists (conditioning theory) and psychodynamic psychologists (unconscious and early experiences) were reducing humans down to a few general laws that applied to everyone. The main humanistic psychologists are Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow.
