9780405051678: Lectures on the Experimental Psychology of the Thought Processes

Présentation de l'éditeur

Feeling and A ttention, published last year, I remarked that the system of psychology rests upon a threefold foundation: the doctrine of sensation and image, the elementary doctrine of feeling,and the doctrine of attention. This statement, which formed the basis of my whole discussion, was promptly challenged by reviewers. I was misled, they affirmed, by a sensationalists bias; I should have taken account of current experimental work upon the thoughtprocesses; I had no right to assume that all intellection is imaginal in character. I could not but acknowledge the essential justice of this criticism, although I could not either accept my critics point of view. I was, indeed, engaged in writing a brief defence of psychological sensationalism, when I received an invitation to deliver a series of lectures at the University of I llinois. Here was an opportunity, of which I gladly availed myself, to treat in some little detail of the recent experimental contributions to the psychology of thought. The present volume is the result.
