Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Carl Rogers looked for successively closer ratings of the actual and ideal selves to assess personal growth during therapy. This means that as therapy progresses, the person's perceived actual self (how they see themselves currently) and ideal self (how they want to be) should become increasingly similar. This indicates that the person is making progress towards becoming their ideal self and achieving personal growth. Option A is incorrect because Rogers did not just look for higher ratings of the ideal self, but for the actual and ideal selves to become more aligned. Option B is also incorrect because Rogers did not just look for higher ratings of the actual self, but for the actual and ideal selves to become more aligned. Option C is partially correct, but only if the different ratings become closer over time.
