Reviews the book" Experimental Psychology: A Manual of Laboratory Practice" by Edward Bradford Titchener (1901). The original volume, in two parts, was to be followed by a companion volume, also in two parts, on the quantitative side. Thus the work is divided into qualitative and quantitative, and one student's and one instructor's manual is to be devoted to each. The chapters run parallel in the two parts of Volume I. Part I contains specific directions for thirty-seven groups of experiments, and Part II contains discussions of each of these, giving theories, references, results, explanations of technicalities, related experiments, and in general the setting of each experiment. The following subjects are treated: visual, auditory, cutaneous, gustatory, olfactory and organic sensations; the affective qualities; attention and action; visual, auditory and tactual perception, and ideational types and association of ideas. Part I also contains introductory directions to the student, and Part II contains suggestions to the instructor, a selected list of books, and a directory of laboratory-supply houses and instrument makers. The present reviewer notes that the patience and exhaustiveness with which Titchener has dealt with the small hitches is highly commendable. He has given us the exercises in the form in which they have been successful in his laboratory. It remains to be seen whether the manuals will serve their purpose as well in the hands of other instructors and in other laboratories. An adequate review can be given only after a thorough trial of the whole plan.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
