“…I found Tudor's exploration of the nature of theory and its implications in the transactional analysis world (specifically in introducing a sixth driver) illuminating and worthwhile. I must say that I find Kahler's (1975) argument that there should be no more drivers (unless they fit his preexisting criteria) unconvincing, at best, and impenetrable, at worst. Tudor provides a coherent and persuasive critique of this.…”

“…(Pavlovska 2013 ) Kahler’s five drivers of human behaviour are observable in distancing language namely, “Be strong”, “Try hard”, “Be perfect”, “Hurry up” and “Please me”. (Kahler 1975 ) Tudor ( 2008 ) postulates the sixth driver as “Take It”. The driver messages are to encourage reaching one’s goals despite the circumstances.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic created a situation for the implementation of emergency remote learning. This meant that as a lecturer at a traditionalist University of contact sessions, the pandemic forced us to teach remotely through online methods of communication, using online lectures, narrated powerpoints, voice clips, podcasts, interviews and interactive videos. The assessments were conducted online from assignments to multiple choice questions, which forced the lecturers to think differently about the way the assessments were presented, in order to avoid easy access to answers found in a textbook and online. This meant that more application questions of theory to practice were assessed in a more challenging way to prevent cheating and collaboration with peers. Formal assessments completed during emergency remote learning, have become the past practice, as innovative methods have been adopted for learning and for assessment purposes in order to preserve the integrity and attainment of the degree through online modes of learning. The aim of the paper investigates and explores the methods of teaching, together with the results obtained from the students of 2019 and 2020 in their final year relating to two final year modules against the literature relating to learning processes and methodologies.

“…In response to Gellert's (1975) point that there are more than five drivers, Kahler (1975) argued that "in order to suggest that there are other behaviors that are distinct from these five, a person would first need to be very knowledgeable in terms of identifying each type (driver) as I have labeled it" (pp. 426-427).…”

“Take It”: A Sixth Driver

Tudor

“Take it” is considered as a sixth driver that accounts, both in developmental and social terms, for the introjection by the child of Parental messages to take and own objects in an inappropriate, exploitative, and unsustainable way. As a negative driver message, “Take it” is considered to support the development of narcissism. It also accounts for the integration of messages that encourage the child to impact in a constructive and sustainable way his or her environment. The author reflects on the nature of theory and the impact of a new contribution to existing transactional analysis theory, as well as on a number of theoretical implications of this additional driver. This contribution to the literature is placed in the context of transactional analysis as a social psychology and a radical psychiatry.
