Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
McClelland's Learned Needs Theory focuses on three main needs: achievement, affiliation, and power. It does not include safety needs as that is part of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. Socialized power need and personalized power need are both included in McClelland's theory under the power need category.
