Humility and 12-Step Recovery: A Prolegomenon for the Empirical Investigation of a Cardinal Virtue in Alcoholics Anonymous

By Stephen G. Post PhD, Maria E. Pagano PhD, Matthew T. Lee PhD & Byron R. Johnson PhD (2016).

It has been the coauthors’ intent to emphasize the significance of humility as a cardinal virtue across the 12-Step program and as essential to all its key elements. The coauthors have placed this emphasis in the context of a wider theological history of thought as this converged on Bill W. and AA. In addition, the coauthors have offered a constructive developmental interpretation of the 12 Steps that relies on a model of four modulations of humility. Finally, the coauthors have reviewed in brief some approaches to the measurement of humility in this context, and suggest several aims for future research.

By Dani Antman. “Come closer,” he said. I moved in toward him till our knees were touching. He pressed his thumb into my third eye, and my whole body shook rapidly as light spiraled up my spine.

I opened my eyes and stared into his. Then he leaned over and kissed me on my lips. I was shocked. And also flattered. I just sat there, not knowing what to do. Then he told me to leave the room.”
