Accordingly, a behaviour model for man, to be truly representative, must include the drive for meaning as a significant dimension of human personality. In the light of this realization, some major psychological models of personality, e.g., the psychoanalytical model, behaviouristic model, humanistic model, and the existential model have been briefly examined, and a model based on transcendental nature of man is proposed. According to this model, the realization of an abiding comprehensive meaning of life and the consequent all­ inclusive meaningful behaviour, both at the individual and social levels, is the junction of man’s perception and belief in a transcendentally anchored integrated framework of life.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Intellectual Discourse}, author={Huq, Manzurul}, year={1994}, month={Jun.} }
