Life Positions and Depression: The Role of Convictions
Life Position, one of the central concepts in Transactional Analysis, is a person's convictions about the worth of the self and others-a basic psychological stand, which is deeply ingrained. There are four Life Positions: "I'm OK-You're OK", "I'm OK-You're not OK", "I'm not OK-You're OK", and "I'm not OK-You're not OK". Contradicting Berne's theory of only one depressive position ("I'm not OK-You're OK"), past findings showed that both "I'm not O…
Life Positions and Attachment Styles: A Canonical Correlation Analysis
This article describes research that investigates the relationship between life positions (Berne, 1962) and the attachment prototypes of Bartholomew and Horowitz (1991). These two constructs were perceived by the authors to have a one-to-one correspondence. “I'm OK, You're OK” (I+U+) was hypothesized to be correlated with secure attachment; “I'm Not OK, You're OK” (I-U+) with preoccupied attachment; “I'm OK, You're Not OK” (I+U-) with the dismiss…
Patterns and Universals of Adult Romantic Attachment Across 62 Cultural Regions: Are Models of Self and of Other Pancultural Constructs
As part of the International Sexuality Description Project, a total of 17,804 participants from 62 cultural regions completedthe RelationshipQuestionnaire(RQ), a self-reportmeasure of adult romanticattachment. Correlational analyses within each culture suggested that the Model of Self and the Model of Other scales of the RQ were psychometrically valid within most cultures. Contrary to expectations, the Model of Self and Model of Other dimensions …
Effects of Transactional Analysis Group Therapy on Ego States and Ego State Perception
This study investigated the effects on participants' ego state responses and their perception of each other's ego states of a 5-day therapy group using transactional analysis as its theoretical foundation. Twenty-eight third-year psychology students of the University of San Carlos, Cebu City, Philippines, participated in the study. In a pretest-posttest-control group design, 15 participants were assigned to the experimental group that underwent a…
A Life Position Scale
This article describes the construction of a Life Position Scale developed by the author. Initial items representing four convictions articulated by Berne (1972)—I'm OK (I+), I'm not-OK (I-), You're OK (U+), and You're not-OK (U-)—were administered to 95 participants. The top five items for each conviction, with item-total correlations that reached an alpha level of p < .05, were retained for a subsequent factor analysis. An exploratory type of f…
