ABSTRACT

This is Volume X of eighteen in the Sociology of Behaviour and Psychology series. Published in 1945, the aim of this study is to provide an account of most of the major contributions to experimental psychology and an attempt to bring out the social aspects of those topics which are generally discussed in textbooks on psychology, and also to try to forge a link between the topics usually confined to textbooks on general psychology and those which are more usually discussed in textbooks on abnormal psychology.
