Going beyond elementary mechanisms: the strategic interplay between grounded procedures
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 February 2021
Abstract
The model presented by Lee and Schwarz provides a novel explanation for the elementary mechanisms of psychological cleansing. I argue that the model could be extended to account for complex instances of psychological cleansing where the grounded procedures are not isolated and the opposing motives of separation and connection are entangled in a strategic interplay.
