"This" only applies to the current card or current stack ("this card" 
or "this stack"). This may or may not be the object whose script is 
executing ("me").

You might want to check out the owner property, in addition to the 
entries for "this" and "me" - it sounds like what you're looking for:

   -- in a button script
   answer the name of the owner of me -- name of the group this button is in
   answer the hilitedButtonName of the owner of me
