Script Cure: Behavioral, Intrapsychic, and Physiological

Transactional analysis, as a social psychiatry, has emphasized the behavioral change aspects of script cure. Within this framework cure is defined as the cessation of script syntonic behavior. Yet, for many people change in behavior alone is not sufficient to effect pervasive change of their life scripts. To achieve a total script cure change must occur at the intrapsychic level of the script as well, that is, change at the cognitive and affective levels of existence.
