an experiment, which is guaranteed to falsify at least one of those predictions
Why do you think so?
Assume we run the experiment and 60% go Maslow way, 40% go Freud way. We try to replicate and 55% go Freud way, 45% go Maslow way. The results from running the test on undergrads at Somecollege show this and the results from running the test on middle-aged adults living in Boonieville show that.

So what got falsified?
Both did. At least, each of them should make their prediction more specific, to explain why it doesn’t apply to large groups of people.
