my answers (am i correct)
Psychodynamic Theory(f,j)
Trait Theory(K,b,d)
Learning Theory(I,n,) Sociocultural(a,c,g)
Humanistic Theory(e,h)
I am not sure where L and M would go.
Your answers are correct, and I can help you with the placement of statements L and M.
L would fall under the Learning Theory category (I, N), as it mentions popular theorists Pavlov and Skinner, who are associated with behaviorism and learning theory.
M would fall under the Humanistic Theory category (E, H), as it mentions the idea of a healthy personality being the ability to love and work, which aligns with the humanistic emphasis on personal growth, self-actualization, and fulfillment.
