‘Working Through’ Interpersonal Transgressions: The Role of Narration (and Re‐Narration) in the Self‐Forgiveness Processes of Wrongdoers

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research examines how wrongdoers may use narration to ‘work through’ a transgression committed, towards self‐forgiveness and reconciliation. In Study 1 (N = 30), reflexive thematic analysis was used to identify narrative types observable in wrongdoers’ storying of a recent interpersonal transgression, informing our conceptual framework ...
