2)  In Roger’s perspective, the compassion and the recognition of potential of each and every individual is known as:

A) Unconditional Love

B) Conditional Love

D) Unconditional positive regard

In Carl Rogers’ person-centred approach, a therapist offers unconditional positive regard—acceptance and non-judgmental warmth toward the client as a worthy person, which nurtures growth and self-actualization.

Unconditional love (A) is a general lay term, not Rogers’ technical construct.

Conditional love (B) is the opposite—approval contingent on behavior.

Client-centred therapy (C) is the overall therapeutic approach; UPR is one of its core conditions (along with empathy and congruence).
