Abstract

The author introduces the concept of natality as a counterpoint to mortality and explores the significance of natality and its key features. He considers how the concept might influence an alternative to framing an existential dialogue that historically tends to be governed by mortality. The discussion extends into the context of transactional analysis theory and considers indications of both mortal and natal frames of reference in a selection of transactional analysis literature. The author considers the implications of framing TA through the lens of natality in the context of contemporary psychology, particularly educational psychology, and offers observations on professional practice.
