This article was written in 1991 by the late Emily Hunter Ruppert. Although the ideas in it have never been published before, they have been taught and embraced by many in the transactional analysis community and in the wider world of psychotherapy. Martin Wells submitted this article on behalf of and with the permission of Ruppert’s estate and wrote a complementary article in this journal. Wells was a member of one of two transactional analysis training groups of professionals that Emily led in Europe biannually over many years (from the mid-1980s to the early 2000s). She made this article available to group members and trainees in Europe and the United States, where she lived and worked as a Teaching Member of the International Transactional Analysis Association.
