Weitz, Hughes, Newbrough, Wallston, Armstrong, and Roback (1978), in presenting a rationale for a transactional approach to therapy have focused on a significant problem in current personality theorizing. The question raised is seen to be: How do we justify including the person-as-cause in a meaningful theory of behavior? Their rationale extends those current trends in cognitive research which would include a conception of the person-as-process to account for the organization, transformation, and retrieval of stimulus input. Their effort moves toward incorporating the work of the cognitivists into the kind of contextualist theory that will be highly useful in guiding the work of applied psychologists.
