Page 16 - The individual determining tendencies responsible for individual differences we propose to call "personal determinants," because they constitute collectively the complex known as personality. Setting out with our primary determining tendency, viz., the course of least exertion, we shall see that all the other tendencies are either manifestations of the same principle or else modified by it. The course of least exertion has been taken account of in more than one work, but so far as the writer is aware,...

Page 50 - refractory period" (compare p. 131) is also a phenomenon related, at least superficially, to fatigue, though in duration it lies at the other extreme from the progressive type. It seems to be of the nature of a back-swing from the condition of activity. There is, apparently, a radical difference between metabolic fatigue, which really lowers the power of an organ, and the inhibitions which result from the action of certain stimuli to the organ. It is probable that inhibitions or interferences give...
Page 111 - ... refuse to follow it. He who under the surgeon's knife represses cries of pain, or he who exposes himself to social obloquy for duty's sake, feels as if he were following the line of greatest temporary resistance. He speaks of conquering and overcoming his impulses and temptations. But the sluggard, the drunkard, the coward, never talk of their conduct in that way, or say they resist their energy, overcome their sobriety, conquer their courage, and so forth.
Page 70 - Plants of high latitudes are more sensitive to heat and cold than those of the same species growing nearer the equator ; ie, they start or vegetate relatively earlier in spring. This subject has been investigated in several directions ; but, so far as the writer is aware, it has not been pursued in this couutry in relation to germination of seeds.

In his last work51 the late Professor Ribot has approached the subject with more insight than his younger contemporary, applying the "least effort" tendency in various connections in close conjunction with the law of parsimony or economy. The pith of his remarks is expressed in the following:...

(8) The rotation of localization with experienced observers occurred as follows: At o° phase difference the sound was localized as in front and distant, ie, external to the head. The localization then described in a horizontal plane a path which appeared to be somewhat circular, but in which the apparent distance contracted until the path entered the ear leading in phase. Then at about 180° phase difference the localization passed quickly...
