Evaluating self-reflexion analysis using repertory grids

Abstract

Vladimir Lefebvre's Algebraic Model of Self-Reflexion is a formal and flexible system for modeling the processes that underlie human judgments. The model has received notable empirical support from studies within personal construct psychology using the repertory grid approach. In this chapter we briefly review this research and the repertory grid method, and then report the results of two new studies on the model conducted in our laboratory. Lastly, we will briefly discuss the implications of our findings with regard to future research on self-reflexion. © 2009 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
