Excerpt from The Psychological Bulletin, 1909, Vol. 6: Containing the Literature Section of the Psychological Review There is reason to believe that psychological aesthetics ought to be taken out of the mere preference stage and advanced to the point of more hopeful analysis by the suggestive results of Bullough.1 The distinction between the merely pleasing or agreeable and the beautiful should be one having psychological interest. In ruling out prefer ence' judgments, and correlating the reasons given by the various subjects he brought to light what he calls 'perceptive types, ' or the individuals who tend to the perception of one aspect or group of as pects (of color), rather than of another.' These types seem to corre spond to the four main aspects of color as objective, physiological, associative, and character. We are now able to see clearly that the difference of aesthetic effects are conditioned by the differences in per ception of aesthetic elements (so far as colors are concerned), and experimental aesthetics receives an invitation to work over from this point of View the appreciation of other elementary factors in aesthetical consciousness.
