With a basic understanding of the characteristics of each group (clarks, scotts and rogers), anyone can understand everyone else!  You will know how those around you will  act in virtually any situation. Finally you can understand what has never made sense to you about the people you work with, live with and/or are friends with. The answer to the question, ‘Why on earth would you do that/say that/feel that way?’

The Wakefield Doctrine is based on the premise that behavior is a response to perception. Within individuals, these behaviors tend to repeat themselves over time, resulting in a characteristic type of behavior, personality.

The Wakefield Doctrine proposes to describe personality on the basis of perception rather than the behavior that results (from perception).

The three characteristic ways to perceive the world are identified as: clarks, scotts and rogers. It is a given that we all start our lives with the potential/’tendancy to perceive’ the world as any of and all of these three. At some point we become predominantly one (over the other two).

We become clarks, scotts or rogers.

The goal of this Blog is to present the Wakefield Doctrine (aka the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers) to the world in the hope that view of people and behavior represented by this idea will provide someone/somewhere  entertainment, education, enlightenment and the eventual modification of the world.

As will be immediately apparent, this blog is a collaborative effort and because of that (at least in part) the organization of the information is a bit, shall we say, casual? The posts are meant to be an introduction to the blog and the Wakefield Doctrine. The pages (listed above) are more specific to a topic, each of the three types of personality, an Overview and a couple of pages that are more of a blank canvas, intended to encourage contribution and participation of any and all readers.

So take a look. You might see a reflection in one of these pages. We welcome and invite comment, it will be appreciated as we continue to gather information and example, illustration and explanations, all with the intent of helping you, the reader, to see the clarks and the scotts and the rogers that are all around you.

And try to remember,as you read this blog, this is about tendencies, about being mostly one or another of the three types.
