Theoretical Egocentrism and the Problem of Compliance
Hogan, Robert
American Psychologist, 30, 5, 533-540, May 75
Four forms of individualism (romantic, egoistic, ideological, and alienated) are distinguished and their roots in American psychology traced. In opposition to this theoretically egocentric perspective, a new psychological role theory is espoused and its implications explored with special emphasis on the dilemma of contemporary ambivalence toward compliance with traditional authority.
