Overview

Excerpt from Proceedings of the American Society for Psychical Research, Vol. 7: Section B Of the American Institute for Scientific Research It is only since 1850 that' psychology has become com plicated with the problems of what is called the subconscious and its more or less synonymous terms. No definite date that I know can be indicated to denote just when students became aware of that group of phenomena which has thrown so much mystery about the mind and served at the same time to escape popular interpretations and to foster the pretense of knowledge. N o doubt many of the phenomena concerned were known in an indefinite past time, but their significance was not recognized, or if in any way recognized, was not sharply distinguished as they are now from normal mental phenomena. But the more scientific study of abnormal men tal states brought about this sharper distinction and since about 1865 or 1870 the field has been fairly well marked off by itself, even tho its close connection with the normal has still to be recognized.
