The "OK Corral" model by Thomas A. Harris describes four life positions based on self-perception and perception of others:
· I am Not OK, you are Not OK (Withdrawn): People in this category often feel hopeless and avoid interactions.
· I am OK, you are Not OK (Task Obsessive): These individuals see themselves as superior and may dominate others.
· I am OK, you are OK (Confronting): This is the healthiest position, where individuals acknowledge both their and others' worth.
· I am Not OK, you are OK (Dependent): These people feel inferior and rely on others for validation.
