Script Theory

What Is Script Theory

The Script Theory is a psychological theory that postulates that the majority of human behavior can be categorized into patterns that are referred to as "scripts" because these patterns work similarly to that of a written script, which is to say that they provide a program for action. Because the purely biological response of affect may be followed by awareness and by what we cognitively do in terms of acting on that affect, Silvan Tomkins realized that more was required to produce a complete explanation of what he called "human being theory." As a result, he created script theory as a further development of his affect theory, which regards human beings' emotional responses to stimuli as falling into categories called "affects." Script theory regards human beings' emotional responses to stimuli as falling into categories called "affects."
