Explore how fiction has influenced your construing. Ep.41

from Drawing the Ideal Self (Personal Construct Psychology - PCP) · host Heather Moran

I thought it was time to invite you to have a go at something you could easily use with people you are working with. This involves eliciting constructs, identifying the more important ones and then pyramiding those constructs. You will use fantasy characters or stories that had an impact on you when you were growing up and it does not matter what sort of media they are from - books, TV, film, games etc. The important things is that they are fictional, which I hope will make the exploration suitable for any age.  I have given an example of my own construing working through the technique so that you can hear a real example. I hope you will find that you can try it yourself and then that you might find it useful in your work. If you do, I would be interested to hear how you found it. As always, what you will end up with is a range of constructs but these will be more concrete. The stories I used were: The Wolf and the Seven Young Kids - Grimm’s Fairytales https://sites.pitt.edu/~dash/grimm005.html Little Red Riding Hood - Grimm’s Fairy Tales https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Red_Riding_Hood Snow White - the movie and then the audio version of the film which I had on vinyl. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_White_and_the_Seven_Dwarfs_(1937_film) The L Shaped Room - Lynne Reid Banks https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0099469634?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_RC7BHHNN58HBPDSWQ7A9 The Singing Ringing Tree https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Singing_Ringing_Tree The Famous Five - Enid Blyton https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Famous_Five
