Definition
- Introduction Kelly's (1991) personal construct theory views people as constantly trying to give meaning to, and anticipate events in, their worlds. To do so, each individual develops a unique, hierarchically organized system of bipolar personal constructs, which provide a basis for the recognition of similarities and differences between events.
