Carl Rogers

Carl Ransom Rogers was born on Januray 8, 1902 and died on February 4, 1987. He was an influential American psychologist and helped found the humanistic approach to psychology. He started his learning off in agriculturem switched to religion and then switched and stayed in  psychology. His theory is much like Freud being well thought out after dealing with many clients. His theory is based on the self-actualizing tendency. He says that we as living things want to do the best that we can. This is the motive behind everything since we all want to develop potentials to the fullest extent. His logic really makes sense in that it is applied to basically everything and if we aren't doing the best that we can we lack. Here is the animation on Rogers.

B. F. Skinner

Burrhus Fredric Skinner was born on March 20, 1904 and died on August 18, 1990. He was a professor of psychology at Harvard. He had many inventions, and ideas. The animation I did reflected on his use of operant conditioning. He is known as an influential psychologist of the 20th century. Some of his ideas were great such as operant conditioning and some were strange such as his invention the air crib. I hope you enjoy the video which involves my take on how operant conditioning would work with B. F. Skinner.

Sigmund Freud

Sigmund Freud was born on May 6, 1856 and died on September 23, 1939. His way of thinking and working paved the way for modern psychology. Some of his well known theories included his theories of the unconcious mind and of repression. His crowning achievment was no doubt his creation of psychoanalysis. Although he did have a few disastrous theories the world will most likely remember him for the contribution he made to the field of psychology. He had a very interesting career and I enjoyed researching him, below is my rendition of a meeting with Sigmund Freud and I have adapted it to make it short and to the point. I hope you enjoy.
