ABSTRACT
In the last two chapters we have been discussing the supposed intellectual ‘faculties5 and some facts as to general and special abilities. W e left aside for the tim e other equally im portan t aspects of the m ind - emotions, feelings, desires, and impulses. In discussing m em ory, however, we did stress the suprem e im - portance of interest in learning : and th a t brings out the fact th a t the m ind tends to function as a whole. O ne of the m ain errors of the ‘faculty psychology5 was th a t it talked of faculties functioning as though they were isolated capacities, whereas in m em ory work (for example) perception, language, im agery, and special interests m ay all be involved.
