Preferred term

Cognitive Differentiation Grid  

Definition

  • The assessment and investigation of vocational processes represents some of the most active and sustained contributions that have derived from George Kelly's 1955 personal construct theory. Kelly's theory is often interpreted as an early forerunner of contemporary cognitive theories, although his emphasis on personal agency, meaning, choice, and growth have variously aligned him with humanistic, existential, and postmodern positions.
