Illustration of the 3 Personality Types of the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

Alright then, look at the video below. This is the perfect illustration of the scottian personality. There is also a clark and a roger in this clip but the scott is the focus.

Damn! this is such a good illustration of the 3 personality types ( of the Wakefield Doctrine).

While it is necessary to read the material describing the Wakefield Doctrine. Material which not only describes the 3 personality types, but also permits you to recognise the types in many situations.
One of the unique things about the Wakefield Doctrine is that it maintains there are not really 3 different personality types, rather it says that there are 3 (distinctive) ways to experience the world and we all have these as qualities. What happens to all of us, at a fairly early age, is that we settle on one of these three ways of seeing the world. At this point we become a clark or a scott or a roger. But it is very important to keep in mind that even thought we become mostly one (of the three) the other two are still there, in the background. You are a clark or a scott or a roger because the predominance of your qualities are one (of the three).
This is why nearly everyone who 'tries out the Wakefield Doctrine' will say, "I get the 3 types and how they see the world, it's just that sometimes I am a scott and then at other times I think I must be a roger".
This happens simply because you are a scott (and a roger) (and a clark too). The 'trick' to this is keep your eye on the majority of qualities. You will always find that you see (the qualities of the type you are) more and more as you learn about it. Especially as you learn to identify other people as clarks and scotts and rogers.

That's where video clips from movies, like the one below are so very helpful. Not only does it serve to see a person that is identified as whichever of the three they happen to be, but to see them 'in action' is incredibly useful. We guarantee, when you look at this clip, you will know what a scott is (and a clark and a roger).

...ok you have had enough time, lets discuss what it is we are seeing in this clip.

(You here for the first time? Stop reading and go right to the video. Trust me, you will get much more out of this little exercise if you do. Plus, if you play your cards right, you might end up the owner of a nearly-free Wakefield Doctrine hat (for your damn head).
After reading and learning, go on over to the Wakefield Doctrine blogsite and submit a Comment about who was the clark or the scott or the roger ...and why you know that. Do that and you could be the owner of a hat (for your damn head).

All right!, lets talk about clarks and scotts and rogers in this clip from the movie, Mad Dog and Glory.
David Caruso is the scott , of course. You could tell that even before the clip started, by the eyes. He has that focus (on the immediate environment) that is totally characteristic of scotts . Always scanning the 'terrain', never stopping, always looking for threats from other predators and constantly looking for prey. There is a page on scotts in the Doctrine blogsite that talks extensively on the characteristic look of a scott's eyes. This 'look', (of the scott) is one of the primary identifiers of the type.

There is another person in the scene as it opens, the Robert DiNiro character. (Staying with the eyes thing, look at the difference between the two at the bar, as the scene opens. The scott is totally focused on the outside world, the immediate environment. The other, the clark is the opposite, the look is of one who is inside his head, he is thinking, considering options. In a sense they are both very active, one in the immediate reality (scott) the other inside the world of possibilities and alternative (clark).Though the gaze is clearly there, for contrast consider DiNiro's character, the clark in this clip. Both very distinctive.

Moving on to the main scene of this clip, Caruso's confrontation with the cop (a roger) who apparently is abusing the woman he is with, it is the force of the scott's challenge that is so startling. What makes the other guy back down is the sense that Caruso's character just doesn't care about the outcome of a fight, there is a sense of a potential but un-defined violence that is what makes the roger back down. The scott is clearly and unequivocally dominating the roger.
