1. What is a quesar experiment?

An experiment with a correlational design, used for abstract variables e.g the self that can't be 'switched on/off'
A naturalistic experiment where variables such as the Self can be measured
An experiment with a longitudinal non-direct design, used for abstract variables e.g the self that can't be 'switched on/off'

A cross-cultural perspective in which the self is modified through the agents interactions with different cultures.
An interactionist perspective where evolutionary factors and the current culture and environment have an effect on the drives of a person and the Self's different levels.
The self arises and is continously modified through the agent's interaction with society, a dynamic process with different cross-cultural significance.
A dynamic process in which the self arises, is changed by internalised societal values and becomes formalised into a discrete entity.

Not very empirical, there is an interplay of factors created without evidence to check credibility.
The categories that he states are incorrect
There are no categories, but an interplay of factors
His method for devising this theory was empirical but poorly controlled leading to an incorrect theory
