Extract

Repertory grids can be applied to individuals in many different ways (Bannister and Mair, 1968). A grid is obtained whenever an observer rates or compares a set of objects, the elements, in terms of a set of logically applicable notions, or constructs, using a consistent scoring procedure throughout (Slater, 1964).
