About this book
A Beginner's Psychology by Edward Bradford Titchener discusses the association of ideas, describing the doctrine as among the oldest and most influential in the history of psychology. The account of recall describes searching through things resembling, opposing, or adjoining in time the thing that has slipped from memory. A proposed experiment presents an observer with a familiar word or simple picture for a few seconds and asks for a passive reception and a report of the resulting mental processes.
The discussion of dreams says observation has established that dream figures may roughly correspond with the dots and splashes of light and colour seen just before sleep. The explanation of meaning identifies psychological meaning with context, a fringe of related processes gathering around a central group of sensations or images.
