LC0bO10 The Structure of References

Appendix D: References in Experiencing Youth

The Structure of References in Experiencing Youth

The following list of references is an attempt to categorize their relative importance to Goethal’s view of how to make sense of the collection of case studies in Experiencing Youth. The objective is to pull together central works to communicate that view through a form of database that might be more effective as a resource than the mix of source book, handouts, and library reference that is the usual form for such material. I imagine this database of material would be comprised of the source book, Experiencing Youth, and a suite of essential articles, among which would be included papers by Anna Freud, Robert White, and J.W.M. Whiting.

Three books’ theories provide conceptual foundations for interpretation; in the context of a course, books by Freud, Sullivan, and Erikson might be required reading at the beginning of the semester. The theoretical books would be supplemented by extended worked examples of analysis and argument, such as one finds in Lives in Progress (White) and On Becoming a Person (Rogers). These and other important works are listed with the prefix A. Other books also have letter prefixes, such as B (secondary) and C (tertiary) indicating their distance from the core of Goethal’s view.

Structure of References in Experiencing Youth

The articles I subdivide into three categories: the inner circle of reference; the secondary references; and the outreaching references (this last, ungainly term I choose to emphasize that although such are not tightly coupled to the Goethal’s view but are nonetheless of major value; that is, they are not “peripheral”). The articles will be listed with a number prefix to indicate whether they are central (1), secondary (2), or )outreaching (3)).

If I imagined offering a course based on Experiencing Youth, the five core books I would choose as essential reading would be:
– S. Freud: Three Contributions to the Theory of Sex
– E. Erikson: Identity, Youth, and Crisis
– H. Sullivan: The Interpersonal Theory of Psychiatry
– R. White: Lives in Progress
– C. Rogers: On Becoming a Person

The following categories of books and articles are in order referenced within the text of Experiencing Youth, grouped by the section headings where they appear.
