Сторінка 735 - ... is already furnished, and to build on and transform these ideas in a manner adapted to the mind containing them. This is especially needful where the ideas are apt to be fallacious. The economic ideas most familiar to those first approaching the study of economics concern money, — personal pocket money and bank accounts, household expenses and income, the fortunes of the rich. Moreover, these ideas are largely fallacious. Therefore, the subject of money is introduced early in the book and recurred...
Сторінка 988 - Every constitution of government in these United States has assumed, as a fundamental principle, the right of the people of the State to alter, abolish, and modify the form of its own government according to the sovereign pleasure of the people. In fact, the people of each State have gone much further and settled a far more critical question by deciding who shall be the voters entitled to approve and reject the constitution framed by a delegated body under their direction.
Сторінка 735 - ... with the locality where the pupil lives is now well recognized. Without such a beginning the effect on the student's mind may be like that betrayed by the schoolgirl, who, after a year's study in geography, was surprised to learn that her own playground was a part of the surface of the earth. . . . This book, therefore, aims to take due account of those ideas with which the student's mind is already furnished, and to build on and transform these ideas in a manner adapted to the mind containing...
Сторінка 725 - The belief is, not that the spirit of the dead is deposited in the tablet but, so far as one can make out, that the tablet is no more than a symbol bearing the name of the dead. It is respected, not because the spirit resides in it, but because it designates the dead for worship. If the tablet were the residence of the spirit, what would be the use of the picture of the dead? The popular belief of to-day, I think, indicates a departure from the ancient belief in the spiritual character of the ancestral...
Сторінка 1002 - Si l'on convient de nommer type moyen l'être « schématique que l'on constituerait en rassemblant en un même « tout, en une sorte d'individualité abstraite, les caractères les plus « fréquents dans l'espèce avec leurs formes les plus fréquentes, on « pourra dire que le type normal se confond avec le type moyen, et « que tout écart par rapport à cet étalon de la santé est un phéno
Сторінка 704 - Quellen stammen. Der Weg der Objektwahl hat ihn regulärerweise über das Bild seiner Mutter, vielleicht noch seiner Schwester, zu seinem Liebesobjekt geführt; infolge der Inzestschranke glitt seine Vorliebe von beiden teuren Personen seiner Kindheit ab, um bei einem fremden Objekt nach deren Ebenbild zu landen.
Сторінка 930 - Let us suppose, however, that all the experimental difficulties have been overcome successfully, and that we know the energy transformations corresponding to every mental process. Does that really give us a measure of mental work? The principle of the conservation of energy compels us to refer these energy transformations to the concomitant physiological processes, in which energy can be neither gained nor lost. The entire amount of energy, as determined by calorimetric measurement, is consumed by...
Сторінка 931 - The object of the tests was to develop methods whereby the unfit girls could be eliminated before instead of after entering the service. The girls were examined with reference to memory, attention, general intelligence, space perception, rapidity of movement, accuracy of movement, and association.
Сторінка 931 - Thompson measured the reaction time of all the girls and eliminated those who showed a long time between stimulus and reaction. The final outcome was that 35 girls did the work formerly done by 120; the accuracy of the work was increased by 66 per cent ; the wages of the girls were doubled; the working-day decreased from 10J hours to 8J hours ; and the profit of the factory was increased.
Сторінка 734 - The pedagogical begins with the student's existing experience, theories, and prejudices as to economic topics, and proceeds to mold them into a correct and self-consistent whole. The order of the first method, therefore, is from ancient to modern; that of the second, from simple to complex; and that of the third, from familiar to unfamiliar. The third order is the one here adopted. That the proper method of studying geography is to begin with the locality where the pupil lives is now well recognized....
