Notes
- 1.
Note how the construct of trust has a double oval (two bubbles). This indicates that it is actually composed of sub-constructs, which we have seen previously (Fig. 2.5): affinities, benevolence, abilities, and integrity. If anyone of these four sub-constructs had been found to be formed of sub-sub-constructs, then the representation of this scenario in Fig. 4.2 would be made by having three ovals (bubbles) around “trust.” Hence, the number of ovals indicates the depth level of the construct.
- 2.
Note how the text “attitude towards mom” has three ovals (bubbles) around it. This is an indication of two other levels of depth: attitude has been found to be linked to intention, dependence, and trust. Trust has been found to be linked to affinities, benevolence, abilities, and integrity.
