This book is a new kind of introduction to psychology. It is different in that it represents for the first time a point of view that is coming to guide the thinking and research of an active group of psychologists in this country. The members of this group are mainly experimentalists, laboratory workers, who spend much of their time in observing and measuring the behaviour of organisms - rats, dogs, guinea-pigs, apes, pigeons, and, of course, human beings. They are unflaggingly on the lookout for fundamental principles of behaviour - principles that hold true for the white rat as well as the college student, for the dog in laboratory harness as well as the patient on the psychoanalyst's couch, for the tribal savage as well as the sophisticated product of our own culture. Already they have discovered some of these principles and have brought them together in the beginnings of scientific theory. Other principles are, at present, only suspected, and the search goes on at an ever-faster pace. In this book, we try to tell about the ones of which we are certain; we describe some of the research they are based on; and we point out the way in which they may be organized to give a meaningful picture of human conduct. We hope that something of interest and use, perhaps even something of adventure, will be found in our account.
