Learning and situated becoming oneself (three integrative syntheses)
Eugene Mario De Robertis
pp. 123-153
After providing a narrative overview of the text's research findings, Chapter Seven turns toward the self as a psychological construct and its controversial history within the discipline. Several criticisms of the self are addressed before bringing the findings into mutual encounter with the psychology of self as envisioned from a holistic developmental perspective: existential-humanistic self-development theory (EHSDT). The chapter also includes considerations of culture, as both creativity and selfhood have been studied and critiqued on a cross-cultural basis. These considerations provide support for a perspective on learning and becoming that revolves around the notion of self-cultivation.
