Scoring Ecstasy
Ecstasy (MDMA) is a drug whose short-term dangers have been demonstrated by a number of deaths, and whose long-term effects are still unknown. It is also illegal. Nevertheless, people continue to take it. This essay aims to address the question of why they do so. I argue that MDMA's ability to enhance communication and offer people a version of religious ritual means that the drug has the potential, at least, to modify subjectivity and intersubje…

Consciring
A fundamental theory of communicability is proposed, covering all human communication in its subjective mode. It is correlative to information theory and communication in the objective mode of modern science. An equation for functional-information is provided, equivalent in importance to that for structural-information on which experiments in objective science are based. The theory leads to a scientific explanation for consciousness, or mind, and…

"Kes" and the Press
Film makers, newsmen and distributors all customarily deny that newspaper reviews or notices have any decisive effect on a film's chances. Yet a good press can be turning point for success of a picture. In England not long ago a case occurred that is already hailed as a classic example of how press can save a picture; certainly it illuminates realities and possibilities of relationship between film makers, press and distributors. The picture was …

Methodology of Trait Analysis
It is proposed that traits, as assessed by persons ( X 's) about their fellows ( Y 's), are best explained from a self‐theoretical standpoint, and not, as hitherto, from a so‐called’ objective’ framework. Theoretically, modes of regard of X 's (not to be confused with ‘halo’ effects) are at issue, and not elements of temperament of tho Y 's. Modes of regard can be represented by factors, attributed to X 's and not to Y' s. Methodological matters …
Postulates of Behaviorism
We propose to take issue with a neo-behaviorist (19) upon what might seem to be a minor detail, and about which we are sure that, upon reflection, he would not differ from us. It has to do with the use of the word experience in a basic postulate of behaviorism. Even if by a hair's breadth this implies something categorically different from behavior , then, it seems to us, the essential meaning of behaviorism has been missed

An Introduction to So‐called Motor Perseveration Tests
R ésumé . UNE INTRODUCTION AU TESTS DITS DE LA PERSÉVÉRANCE MOTRICE. L'étude sert à introduire, avec un peu plus de détail qu'auparavant, certains tests de la persévérance idéo‐motrice, et les théories qu'on peut suggérer pour en expliquer les résultats, un type de test, comprenant des activités alternantes, a été choisi pour l'étalonnage. On avance quatre théories pour expliquer les mesures fournies par ces tests. La première est la théorie de l…
