Understand that the question asks about the psychologist who developed Theory X and Theory Y, which are concepts related to motivation and management styles.
Recall that Theory X and Theory Y describe two contrasting views of workers: Theory X assumes employees are inherently lazy and need control, while Theory Y assumes employees are self-motivated and seek responsibility.
Identify the psychologist associated with these theories by reviewing key figures in motivation and management psychology.
Recognize that Douglas McGregor is the psychologist who introduced Theory X and Theory Y in his work on management and motivation.
Confirm that the other options (Sigmund Freud, John B. Watson, Abraham Maslow) are known for different psychological theories and contributions, not Theory X and Theory Y.
