Transactional Analysis-Script Analysis involves

• A. It uncovers the unconscious early decisions about how life shall be lived.
• B. It focuses on current relationships only.
• C. It uses only dream content.
• D. It is a technique for building rapport.

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that Script Analysis in Transactional Analysis aims to uncover the unconscious life plan a person formed in childhood—the early decisions about how life is supposed to be lived. These messages and decisions become a life script that guides behavior, relationships, and choices, often without the person realizing it. A therapist helps bring this script to light by exploring early experiences and the messages a person absorbed from family, shaping patterns that continue to show up in adult life. Once the script is visible, it can be examined and revised if it’s limiting or causing problems.

This isn’t primarily about current relationships in isolation, nor about dream content as the sole source of material, and it isn’t simply a technique for building rapport. The strength of script analysis lies in tracing back to those early, unconscious decisions and showing how they influence present behavior.
