some groups of insane subjects.

The normal groups have been studied for the purpose of determining the
frequency and manner of occurrence among normal subjects of the
various of abnormal reactions. It seemed best for this purpose to
consider separately the records of those subjects who gave an
unusually large number of individual reactions. Fifty-three records
containing fifteen or more individual reactions were found after a
fairly diligent search among our normal test records. In the other
groups of subjects--persons of common school education, persons of
collegiate education, and children--we included no records containing
more than ten individual reactions.

The more striking departures from average normal figures are indicated
in the table by the use of heavy type.

This table reveals associational tendencies as occurring in connection
with the psychoses studied. A better insight into the nature of these
tendencies can be gained by a special analysis of the test of each
clinical group.


DEMENTIA PRAECOX

In this psychosis we find the number of individual reactions far
exceeding not only that of the normal but that of any other psychosis
which we studied. To a corresponding extent we find the number of the
highest type of normal reactions--the common specific
reactions--reduced.
