Reviews and describes various concepts of ego states proposed by Eric Berne and other TA theorists. Suggests the four basic models of ego states to be the conceptual, the structural, the functional, and the second-order structural. Considers each in terms of specific content, inter-relations with other models, utility, and most appropriate application. Identifies strengths and limitations of each in illustrating such ego state pathologies as contamination and exclusion.
