Summary/Abstract: This study addresses the research question as to whether Roberto Assagioli’s Psychosynthesis, is a form of Integral Psychology, as expounded by Ken Wilber. A careful review is undertaken of the English publications of Roberto Assagioli and Ken Wilber, with special reference to Wilber’s conceptions of levels, lines, states, stages, types and quadrants of consciousness. In view of consistent evidence of coherent synchronization between the respective authors’ approaches, it is concluded that Psychosynthesis is a form of Integral Psychology. It is envisaged that future research will provide further evidence of alignment and benefit from their integral study and praxis. Specific recommendations are that future studies review, compare and evaluate integral psychological, psychosynthetic, applied, practical and therapeutic works.
