Personal Constructs. Part 1 of 2 on Personal Construct Psychology

A lecture and a hands-on exercise on personal construct psychology given by Vivien Burr taken from a series on research methods and research design given to masters (graduate) students at the University of Huddersfield. This is part 1 of two, and examines the elicitation of personal constructs and how people may differ in how they construe their world. This is based on the ideas of George Kelly who developed the psychology of personal construct in the 1930s. Kelly argued that constructs have two poles, they are bipolar and different people may have different contrasts for the same concept.
