Modeling an experiment on construing self and others
In this paper we analyze the results of two repertory grid experiments in which subjects categorized themselves and others on bipolar constructs [the last author and \textit{Y. Rodney}, Can. J. Behavioral Sci. 15, 52-59 (1983)]. We attempt to explain these results on the basis of the assumption that the subjects relied upon a special ''algebraic processor'' for modeling the self and others, previously described by the first author [J. Math. Psychol. 22, 83-120 (1980; Zbl 0445.92024); Algebra of conscience: A comparative analysis of Western and Soviet ethical systems (1982; Zbl 0537.03001); J. Math. Psychol. 29, 289-310 (1985; Zbl 0568.92029)].
