"Grace Under Pressure"

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses how it is easier to analyze a fictitious character than a real human character. This is the case with the character of Grace from the television show "Grace Under Pressure". This paper provides an analysis of the character using first the Adlerian therapy model, then analyzing her through a behavior model and then finally suggesting a treatment plan for a person with the profile of Grace.

From the Paper:

"Grace's character " to begin with a thumbnail of her " is presented in the series as a no-nonsense, take-no-guff survivor of a bad marriage that was often abusive (at least in psychological terms). After eight years of putting up with this bad marriage, Grace decided that low pay and long hours was a better choice than staying married, and the show follows her as she lives with the consequences of this choice as she works to raise her three children on her own with few skills or advantages even as she works to overcome her own problems with alcohol."
