It doesn't imply any degradation of the importance of the Reactive four, only that their dependence is subject to the Active four, ie. reacting to the conditions of the active group .. as this appears to be the situation.

G'day AK83,

I have been going over your suggestion for a while as I am working on the research tome. I think you have hit the nail on the head. As much as I do not like Bernie Skinner & Co and their white lab-coated, clipboard holding, watch-keeping Behaviourists the two examples "fit".. Much better than Dominant and Submissive [bighmmm]

Hmmm. I might give it a bit of a tweak though and go "Dynamic" and "Reactive"

Thanks for that [thumbsupbig]

Kind Regards
Lionel

Hello All,

Thank you for all the replies and for your thoughts. I have just performed a Find and Replace search and made adjustments to two chapters. Therefore - cross fingers things are pretty much locked in for the duration. Again thank you for your contributions they were greatly appreciated.

It has just hit 11:00 pm here and I shutting up shop for the night!

Kind Regards
Lionel

I was going to suggest the Cardnial points/ Ordinal Points to lend a navigational air to the whole shebang.
The ordinal points being defined by their relation to the cardinal points could (?) be a helpful concept...

Probably too late...
