a)In comparing Freud's view of human behavior to those of B.F. Skinner,
b)In comparing Freud's view of human behavior to B.F. Skinner,
c)In comparing Freud's view of human behavior with those of B.F. Skinner,
d)In comparing Freud's and B.F. Skinner's view of human behavior,
e)In comparing Freud's view of human behavior with B.F. Skinner's,

compare need to have a "to / with" and in choice D, it gives off the impression that Freud and Skinner each have one view of human behavior.

Dear Pankaj,
This is a very basic question, I suggest you do a thorough reading of the SC notes posted in this forum and SC flash cards before even attempting to solve SC questions. I made the same mistake of randomly trying to solve question but ended up wasting a lot of time. Master the SC notes and then do these questions. It will help you immensely.
