Script theory is a cognitive theory that describes how people use structured knowledge to interpret and understand experiences and events in their everyday lives. It was developed in the 1970s by cognitive psychologist Roger Schank and others. The theory posits that humans have mental representations, called "scripts," which are frameworks for understanding sequences of actions or events in familiar contexts. Scripts consist of defined roles, actions, and expectations associated with specific situations.
