Abstract
Orientations are defined as behaviors involved in the process of self-definition where the environment is scanned in search of personal points of reference and available sources of self-reinforcement. The method requires the subject to take (or have someone else take) a set of 12 photographs which describe "who you are." Juvenile delinquents were found to reveal lower institutional orientation (home and school) and aesthetic orientation but greater peer orientation than a control group.Keywords
