ABSTRACT
The Active Ideational culture mentality can come to existence also directly, without passing through the Ascetic stage. Large masses of individuals among the primitive tribes, as well as amidst a modem metropolis, have had a Pseudo-Ideational culture mentality. The results suggest that not only individuals but social groups and classes differ from one another in regard to the frequency of each type of culture mentality and conduct within its limits. Beyond the behavior of individuals and small groups, the Active Ideational mentality is found in the great systems which spring to life from the Ascetic Ideational point of view. In a way it is the tragic and immanent destiny of the Ascetic Ideational culture system to turn into the Active Ideational. The types and the traits of culture mentality and conduct are unevenly distributed among various social groups, and, in the systems of integrated culture created and maintained by these groups.
