Excerpt: ... transfer to carry the full sense of the importance of the principles and the richness of its applications in the several levels of evolution. The same comment may be made in regard to the succeeding topic which illustrates the principles governing the higher phases of psychic regulation, where the sensibilities, emotions, and reasoned actions combine into a system of sentiments set and operative in an institutional, social milieu. For the moment the emphasis is upon the mode of reaching the sentimental stages of psychic regulation. Note 12, page 56. With a somewhat more limited yet genuine reference Thorndike says: What might appear to be perverse luxuries in the business of keeping one''s self and one''s offspring alive, turn out to be, in connection with certain other tendencies, means of exterminating all enemies, securing food in regular abundance, and remaking the environment to suit man''s almost indefinite multiplication. NOTES TO CHAPTER II Note 1, page 58. The primary meaning of sensibility refers to the capacity to respond (through the sense-feeling aroused) to stimulation, and to respond differently to situations presenting variable stimuli. More simply, it refers to the capacity to be differently affected in the presence of cries or laughter, of smiles or tears, of blows or caresses, of bitter or of sweet morsels, of fragrant or of rank odors, of red and of blue, and so on through the gamut of natural sense-stimuli and their occasions. That the sensibilities in their primitive exercise are part of original nature may be assumed, though how far the response is linked to specific types of stimuli is uncertain. Presumably certain ranges of stimuli by their nature are disposed to please or to irritate, or to contribute slightly in the direction of ...

Excerpt from book: sponsiveness alike; the responsive tendencies develop interrelations and conflicts of tendency; and yet more derivative variations ensue through the large range of environmental appeals in the psychic life of an organism of any degree of complexity. The central bearing of this body of facts is that the elemental reactions in which the instinctive adjustment is commanding, furnish the clew to the nature of primary traits; this principle will find due recognition. A trait comes to mean a more generic reactive tendency, related closely or remotely to a specific natural situation, and retaining at all events a direct functional significance. The term acquires a variable meaning, and gets its value from the actual range of its application. Such is always the case in regard to products of evolutionary forces which in one direction hark back to elemental origins, in another reflect the environmental adjustment, and in yet another embody the issues of conflict, amalgamation, and complication with other tendencies of like status. At the level at which it is profitable to present the analysis of human qualities, traits appear as generic reactive tendencies or as partial modifying factors of such tendencies, yet reflect the setting of the specific reactions in which they had their source [6]. Traits are issues of original and definite responsive tendencies of the nervous system; they represent functional trends or aids, and get their meaning from the part which they play in natural situations and the complications both naturally and artificially arising from them. Traits as they come to be recognized and named owe their selection to their conspicuousness, which reflects the interest in observing themâ?"the interest itself reflecting their practical import in human Books, History~~General, Character-and-Temperament~~Joseph-Jastrow, 999999999, Character And Temperament, Joseph Jastrow, 1458817482, General Books LLC, , , , , General Books LLC<
