(A) humanistic
Spoiler
Explanation
Humanistic models of personality reject the idea of determinism (that one’s action and
choices have been determined by factors outside of one’s control) and embrace the idea of free will (that people are able to make their own choices). Biological models of personality tend to see human thought and behavior as determined by physiological factors. Evolutionary models view genes as the determining factor over most human behavior. Behaviorists believe one’s history of reinforcement determines their future choices, and psychoanalysts see the thoughts in one’s unconscious as the factor that controls human behavior.
