 A Transaction 

1. A TRANSACTION is an exchange of two strokes

between two people. The first stroke is called the

stimulus, the second is called the response.

2. Sometimes transactions get 'crossed', or are

'ulterior', causing misunderstandings to occur,

and communication to break down.

 Aim of Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy

1. To help a person to choose to be in a particular

inner state, instead of just allowing the current ego-

state to dominate feelings, attitudes and behavior.

2. Changing the Life Script

3. Replacing organizational or societal scripting with

cooperative non-violent behavior is the aim of other

applications of Transactional Analysis.

"I'm OK - You're OK" 

This is probably the best-known expression of thepurpose of Transactional Analysis, which is

1. To establish and reinforce the position that

recognizes the value and worth of every person.

2. Transactional Analysts regard people as basically

"OK" and thus capable of change, growth, and

healthy interactions.
