Peter G. Ossorio (4 May 1926 – 24 April 2007) was an American psychologist best known for his development of Descriptive psychology, a pragmatic and theory neutral pre-empirical approach to the study of behavior.〔The Ethnogenic Approach. (1998). The Handbook of social psychology. New York, NY: McGraw-Hill.〕〔Lane Lasater, Sharon Wegscheider-Cruse, Janet E. Gustafson, . (2000). Recovery from compulsive behavior: how to transcend your troubled family . Los Angeles, CA: Wellness Institute, Inc..〕 Ossorio in his 2006 volume, The Behavior of Persons, explicated the concept of "Persons" by creating a conceptual map of the interdependent concepts of "Individual Person", "Language", "Action", and "Reality". He described persons as individuals whose history is, paradigmatically, a history of Deliberate Action in a dramaturgical pattern. ==Background== Peter G. Ossorio was born on May 4, 1926 in Los Angeles CA as the youngest of six children. The family was highly intellectual and all six children earned college degrees. His oldest brother, Abel G Ossorio was the first Hispanic Ph. D in clinical psychology, receiving his degree from UC-Berkeley in 1958. Peter attended UCLA as an undergraduate after serving time in the US Army. While in graduate school in clinical psychology, he took course work in philosophy with Carnap and other members of the department. He also became familiar with automata theory and was a proficient computer programmer. At UCLA, he worked closely with Comrey who was a master of factor analytic technique and became adept in their use and his own programming of required procedure.〔interview with Ossorio〕 He moved to the University of Colorado in 1961 and the clinical psychology faculty in Boulder where he taught, supervised, mentored, wrote and conducted research for his entire academic career, and where he founded a discipline that came to be known as Descriptive psychology. Much of his research was funded by government agencies and businesses rather than the normal route of NIMH and NSF. He submitted successful contract proposals through his several business,including the Linguistic Research Institute, Ellery Systems, and Global Commerce Systems.〔Obit in Boulder Camera; personal interviews with collaborators〕 His publications are extensive, and he is widely recognized for creating Descriptive Psychology, a unique and systematic approach to understanding persons and their behavior. Descriptive Psychology has been used by professionals around the world to solve problems in the fields of artificial intelligence, astronomy, business, computer science, psychology, spirituality, and others.〔Putman, A.O. Ph.D., (Descriptivepsychologypress.com )〕
