Reviews for A Configuration Approach to Mindset Agency Theory: A Formative Trait Psychology with Affect, Cognition and Behaviour

'What a bold intellectual venture! The proposed configuration approach provides a powerful framework and an innovative methodology for the analysis of personality, organization, and culture. It also delivers an operationalization of Magoroh Maruyama's Mindscape Theory.' Markus Schwaninger, Professor Emeritus, University of St. Gallen, Switzerland
