Excerpt from The British Journal of Psychology, 1913, Vol. 5 Experiments were begun in the Psychological Laboratory at Cam bridge in the summer of 1909, with the same apparatus and by the same method as were used by Dawes Hicks and Rivers'. The horizontal-vertical figure was exposed for a fraction of a second on a ground-glass screen. The subject, seated at a convenient distance, was warned of the coming exposure and was allowed to express his judgment in any of these forms - Vertical (or horizontal) much greater, Vertical greater, Vertical greater or equal, Equal. Any constraint Of the subject's attention towards one particular line was avoided by leaving him quite free to refer either to the horizontal or the vertical line in expressing his judgment.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Psychology, 1893, Vol. 5 The purpose of the present investigation was to test the accuracy of earlier experiments and to throw new light on some aspects of the subject. The experiments were made in the laboratory of Professor Ebbinghaus, in Berlin, beginning in May, 1890, and extending to February, 1891. The labora tory consists of a single room; this made it impossible for the reactor and the one who conducted the experiments to be separated. There was no conversation, however, during the progress of the experiments, except as the reactor said worthless when some abnormal conditions made the value of a certain reaction doubtful. The work was carried on late in the afternoon and in the evening, when the sur roundings were quiet. A signal always preceded the excita tion by about three fourths of a second.

Excerpt from The British Journal of Psychology, 1914, Vol. 6 1. A variety of ways of handling the facts of attention has become familiar in the history of psychology. In the long run, however, they will all be found to fall under one or the other of two broadly contrasted modes of explanation which Lotze characterised in a well-known passage 3. On the one hand, attention has been depicted after the fashion of a varying power of illumination, a sort of waxing and waning light, which may be directed by the mind upon the several presentations it receives, and in accordance with the variations of which, other things remaining the same, will be the clearness, the precision, the complete ness in apprehension, of what is attended to. Lotze himself remarks upon the little help there is to be got from a View of this kind. By. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The British Psychological Society's contributions to psychological research are memorialized in The British Journal of Psychology, 1910, Vol. 3. The British Psychological Society (BPS) is a representative body for psychologists and psychology in the United Kingdom. The BPS maintains several journals which publish psychological studies. The British Journal of Psychology, 1910, Vol. 3 is a good example of the rigorous standards professionals must adhere to in order to be published by a peer-reviewed journal. The compilation of scholarly articles covers many different topics of interest to researchers. The articles follow research guidelines, setting forth the subject to be studied, presenting the methodology of the study, presenting the results and making general conclusions. A few of the articles deserve special attention. "Natural History of Experience" by C. Lloyd Morgan argued for a non-reductive view of human psychological abilities, viewing human experience in the widest sense. Morgan was arguing against psychologists who were in thrall to the eugenics movement. "The Colour Preferences of School Children" presents extensive research on the colour preferences of children of both sexes as they age. It concludes that colour preferences are strongly red and yellow but begin to change as the children age and develop intellectually. There is some evidence that colour preference is a function of intellectual development rather than age, but further studies were needed to know whether colour teaching could truly affect intellectual capacity. Although some of the equations presented alongside the research may seem complicated at first, the results of the studies are not. A general readership can definitely understand the theories, tests and results presented by The British Journal of Psychology, 1910, Vol. 3.

Excerpt from The British Journal of Psychology, 1912, Vol. 4 My third observation is that the tropisms and intelligence that appear in the earliest forms of life never afterwards disappear. For we cannot suppose with Spencer and Romanes that consciousness is first found at some stage in the development of animals, as a result of the complexity of organisation, hesitancy or delay of reaction, seeing that the Signs of consciousness are present in the Simplest; nor do we find that discrimination and memory are at any stage lost, to be after wards recovered. There is, no doubt, opposition between the complete organisation of a reflex arc, and the manifestation of intelligence; and we are apt to assume that the whole life of a lowly organism is Similar to the more completely integrated structures of our own bodies, which seem to us unconscious. But this is a very disputable analogy; for in complex organisms with division of labour the lead in adaptive variation is restricted to special organs. As intelligence persists, so also do the tropisms at all stages of development; originally independent of a nervous system, they are taken up by such systems as soon as these are formed, and extensively influence the conduct of all animals, including ourselves. I am inclined to believe that the explanation of every instinct will lead us back to a tropism or tropisms.
