Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Experimental Investigation of the Process of Choosing The Experimental Investigation of the Process of Choosing By Raymond H.Wheeler University of Oregon I. Introduction The experimental investigation here reported aims to present a detailed description and analysis of the mental processes involved in the act of choosing, together with an interpretation of the functioning of these mental processes. In 1910 Michotte and Prum (6)made an experimental analysis of the act of choosing. Their materials consisted of groups of numbers which were written upon cards in such fashion that certain simple arithmetical operations (adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing), were possible and convenient; and their method consisted of presenting one of these cards in a tachistoscope, with the instructions that the observer should choose for a serious motive either to add or subtract, to multiply or divide the numbers. Here it was found that one of the determining factors of the volitional consciousness consisted of a feeling of mental activity conscience de I action) which is unanalyzable and which is intimately associated with a consciousness of the self. The authors expressly state that this feeling of activity should be differentiated sharply from an awareness of muscular strain. Contemporary with these latter experiments, Barrett(3) investigated motives and motivation. He first established strong associations between eight unpleasantly tasting liquids and eight corresponding nonsense names; then he presented these names to his observers in as many combinations of pairs as possible. On a shelf between the observer and the experimental apparatus rested the two glasses of liquids corresponding to the names in the tachistoscope.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Experimental Study of the Factors and Types of Voluntary Choice Stout (19. P. Treats the problem in similar fashion, but where mcdougall definitely attributes sense of effort only to the presence of the self-regarding sentiment, Stout refers all forms of volitional choice to the interposition Of a self-factor, and under the concept self as expressed in the word I is included in systematic unity the life history Of the individual, past, present and future, as it appears to himself and others together with all its possible or imaginary develop ments The motives are motives only in so far as they arise from the nature Of the self, and presuppose the connec tion with the self as a determining factor. From this it fol lows that the recognized reasons for a decision can never con stitute the entire cause Of a decision. Behind them there al ways lies the idea of the self as a whole. What this involves can never be completely analysed or stated in the form Of definite reasons or special motives. Calkins (5 p. 226) also specifically emphasizes the ego-centric nature of volition. In will I am actively, assertively, related to my environment, I am conscious of my superiority and my independence Of it, I conceive of it as existing mainly for my own use or gratifica tion. And she finally dissents emphatically from any attempt to define the act merely in structural terms of sensation, image and feeling, the consciousness of the self as Willing being utterly irreducible to such.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book contains a selection of peer-reviewed papers from the 2022 conferences, which took place at the Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian Spanish Institute (UniKL MSI), Kedah, Malaysia. This book contains twenty-two papers written by researchers participating in the conferences. Topics covered in this book include composite materials, thermodynamics, vibration, dynamics of structures, manufacturing processes, computer-aided manufacturing, CFD analysis, design and optimization of devices, and procedures. The topics are commonly encountered in industries and become an interest in the academic world. The learning of engineering technology’s curricular across universities is now an essential topic covered in various higher learning institutions. Therefore, it is hoped that this book serves as an excellent reference for researchers and graduate students working with/on multidisciplinary engineering technology.

Download or read book Fisher Neyman and the Creation of Classical Statistics written by Erich L. Lehmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-07-25 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical statistical theory—hypothesis testing, estimation, and the design of experiments and sample surveys—is mainly the creation of two men: Ronald A. Fisher (1890-1962) and Jerzy Neyman (1894-1981). Their contributions sometimes complemented each other, sometimes occurred in parallel, and, particularly at later stages, often were in strong opposition. The two men would not be pleased to see their names linked in this way, since throughout most of their working lives they detested each other. Nevertheless, they worked on the same problems, and through their combined efforts created a new discipline. This new book by E.L. Lehmann, himself a student of Neyman’s, explores the relationship between Neyman and Fisher, as well as their interactions with other influential statisticians, and the statistical history they helped create together. Lehmann uses direct correspondence and original papers to recreate an historical account of the creation of the Neyman-Pearson Theory as well as Fisher’s dissent, and other important statistical theories.

This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimental Investigation of the Action of Medicines, Vol. 1: Circulation Pathology. - In order to choose a drug which will have the effect that we desire to obtain, we must know where the morbid changes are taking place, and what their nature is and we must be sure that our medicine will act on the affected part, and in such a way as to counter act the disease. We must trace every symptom which we see, back to its unseen source; every flush on the cheek, every quickening of the pulse, back to the vaso-motor or cardiac nerves, which have allowed the capillaries to become dilated, and thus produced the redness, or have permitted the heart to beat more rapidly than its wont. We must then inquire what has produced this alteration in the nervous system, and so on, till at last we discover, if possible, the hidden cause of the mischief. We will then give that remedy which will act in the proper way'on the part which we believe to be the seat of the morbid process; and, if the expected result does not ensue, we shall, at any rate, have discovered what the pathology of the disease is not; and, by trying a remedy which will act in a different way or on a different structure, we may find out what it really is. When I Speak of the pathology of a disease, I do not mean those obvious alterations in the structure of an organ which we meet with in post mortem examinations, but the so-called functional changes which precede and are the cause of both them and the symptoms. For ex ample, the disorganisation of a man's liver by the presence of an abscess, or of his kidneys by fatty degeneration, is not the disease from which he suffered, any more than a field strewn with slain or crowded with heaps of wounded is a battle. The disease was the alteration in the nervous and vascular systems, and in the nutrition of tissues, which we call the inflammatory process, and which produced the abscess and degeneration, and the disturbance of the same systems to which these lesions in their turn give rise just as an army may not only lose the battle for want of the assistance which its slain and wounded would have given, but its retreat may be embarrassed by their presence.
