To resolve some discrepancies in rackets theory and its place within TA theory and treatment, this article proposes the addition of Racket Analysis and explains how the Racket System is a model for identifying and dealing with racket-related phenomena. The Racket System is self-reinforcing and distorted, based on script, and consists of Script Beliefs and Feelings, Rackety Displays, and Reinforcing Memories.
