Kelly, Eugene W.; Sweeney, Thomas J. – School Counselor, 1979
Proposes that the behavior of many teenagers may be understood as a function of 11 immediate goals, each of which represents a coherent set of attitudes and behaviors by which the ultimate goals of belonging and self-esteem are sought. These goals are rooted in faulty beliefs and elicit characteristic reactions from adults. (Author)
