Description
Summary:"This manual introduces a new kind of course in experimental psychology. Traditionally, courses in this field have been concerned with problems of sensation, perception, simple reaction, learning, memory, etc., in general, with the simpler processes of consciousness and response. For the most part problems of personality and of complexly motivated behavior have not been included in courses in experimental psychology, and this despite the fact that one of the most significant developments in psychology during the last twenty years has been the demonstration of the possibility of extending the experimental method to the investigation of the psychological dynamics of behavior. The experimental studies included in this manual were first developed in 1942-43 as laboratory exercises in a course in Clinical and Experimental Psychopathology offered that year at Bryn Mawr College. Experimental Studies in Psychodynamics consists of two parts: a laboratory manual and a set of experimental materials. There is also a manual which has been prepared for the use of instructors"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).
