Excerpt from Elementary Experiments in Psychology
The president of a college asked a distinguished psychologist how much money his board ought to appropriate for the equip ment of a fair elementary laboratory. The reply came: Three thousand dollars a year for a good instructor and one dollar for paper and pins. This manual supplies the paper and pins and, in part, the instructor.
The experiments are independent and self-explana tory. Provided the manual is used in connection with the customary elementary text-book or lectures, the experiments require no introduction; the directions are adequate, and the running comment furnishes the set ting for each step and enables the student to see the significance of the results. The beginner needs much help in his experiments in psychology, and there is no more practical way of giving it than through a manual.
