Berne's six script types or patterns—Never, Always, Until, After, Over-and-Over, and Open-Ended—are illustrated by six Chinese myths. In contrast to corresponding Greek myths, these Chinese myths are more readily recognizable by Chinese patients and may therefore have greater impact on them. In addition, the endings of these myths are less tragic and more positive, which may be less confronting and threatening and more likely to lead to redecisions for change
