Born interpretation of wave function is based on :
Answer: A
Born's interpretation is that the probability of finding the particle between r and r + dr is proportional to |ψ|2 dr.
Max Born (1926) proposed that the wavefunction itself has no direct physical meaning, but the square of its modulus, ψ*ψ, is a probability density. That is why acceptable wavefunctions must be finite, single-valued and normalisable: the total probability over all space must equal 1.
Continuity and normalisation are conditions placed on ψ because of the Born interpretation, not the interpretation itself. The mathematical representation of an observable is an operator, which is a different postulate of quantum mechanics.
