ABSTRACT
If we turn now to those psychologists who seek to investigate experimentally ‘personality,’ but who attack it rather from the angle of discrete manifestations than from that of a dynamic unity, we find that here too there is a tendency to emphasize two different aspects which seem at the moment likely to establish a distinct cleavage in the method of attack of the subject. These two aspects may be differentiated according as they emphasize the emotional side on the one hand and on the other the conative element which is bound up with the will. Evidence of these different methods of attack must be sought primarily in the work of contemporary American psychologists.
