[23] Image no. 5 appeared with the concavity in front. In the centre of the figure appeared a dark grayish splotch of light, very much darker than the rest of the image. This is due, most probably, to the presence of Charpentier's phenomenon of recurrent bands. If this happens in this figure the ends of the recurrent bright images would overlap while the centres would not, so that the black bands appearing, as it were, through interstices in the central part of the figure, would seem like a dark splotch, especially since the outlines of the bands are vague and hazy. The back end of the figure had the effect of being vertical or nearly so. This is probably due to the same cause as that which made the circular figure to appear as it did, namely, the negative after-image overlapping the positive after-image. The front of this black image is usually of about the same shape as the front of the real figure which it follows. If this is so, then, in this case, it would make the back part of the image pretty nearly vertical.

[24] The intensity of the objective stimulation may be represented by the line AB. If there were no reënforcement of stimulation the whole figure would be flat on top and of this height. The difference between AB and AC, or BC, represents the increase of intensity due to irradiation at the most favorably situated portion of the figure. The other portions receive increments proportional to their location, as indicated in the diagram.

[25] Favorable localization will of course depend largely on the shape of the figure in which the point is situated. Thus one in the angle of a triangle or at the horn of a crescent would have much less reënforcement of excitation than another point, say halfway down the side.

[26] Bidwell describes this "black process" or "negative after-image" of a bright, white light as being of a blackness more intense than the ordinary blackness of an entirely dark room. This is perfectly true. The black image, however, lasts for a very much longer time than the recurrent images of the same light. Often this velvety black band would trail along behind the moving light for the distance of a foot or more, gradually lightening into the darkness of the background.

[27] The intensities used with white light are all less than an eight-candle-power electric lamp placed at about a foot behind the opening and covered with two pieces of ground glass.

[30] Comptes Rendus, vol. 53, p. 98, 1861. "Sans rien livrer à l'hypothèse il est bien certain que des changements dans la circulation périphérique arrivent souvent sous l'influence d'émotions morales.... En résumé d'après ce qui précède il nous semblerait illogique de faire une exception pour les actions que les causes morales exercent sur les battements du cœur, et nous pensons qu'elles doivent agir comme toutes les autres influences, c'est à dire à la périphérie primitivement."

[31] We quote as an instance Lotze: Medicinische Psychologie, p. 257, 1852: "Es ist wahr, dass Gefühle sehr lebhafte motorische Ruckwirkungen äussern; wir sehen die Respiration in Unordnung gerathen, den Druck der Arterienwandung auf das Blut bei heftigen Schmerzen zunehmen, Erbrechen auf widrige Geschmackseindrücke, allgemeine Muskelkrämpfe bei physischen Martern eintreten." All the principal physiological features of feelings are enumerated here, but one hardly will give any great credit for priority to Lotze. Such a general statement, in fact, belongs to the class of easy observations from which philosophical speculation often starts. G. L. Duprat shows that the same "observations" underlie the theories of Aristotle, Hippocrates, and Plato. (Duprat: La psycho-physiologie des passions dans la philosophie ancienne, Archiv f. Geschichte d. Philosophie, vol. 18 (N. F. 11), pp. 395-412, 1905.)

[38] It has been pointed out that this terminology, which is due to a large extent to Landois, presupposes a certain theory of the origin of the secondary elevations. (Edgren: Cardiographische und sphygmographische Untersuchungen, Skandinavisches Archiv. f. Physiologie, vol. 1, p. 92, 1889.) It is not easy to change a terminology, and the Greek terms, some of which were used by and before Galen, are so indifferently connotative that they can be kept without inconvenience. If one were to be rigorous, one would change the name of the sphygmograph into palmograph, because this instrument does not serve exclusively for the registration of the abnormal pulse. It does seem, however, advisable to drop the terms recoil wave (Rückstosselevation, Landois), and "onde de rebondissement" (Marey), because they are taken from modern languages and directly suggest a certain theory with which they are intimately connected.

"Le dicrotisme du pouls est un phénomène physiologique, on l'observe presque chez tous les sujets; seulement il n'est sensible au doigt que dans les cas où il est extrêmement prononcé." References for previous observations of the slow descent of the pulse curve are given by Landois, Die Lehre vom Arterienpuls, p. 36, 1872.

[46] Cf. Howell: American Text-book of Physiology, p. 436, 1897. Marey's first explanation of the dicrotic belongs to this type (Comptes Rendus, vol. 47, p. 826, 22 Nov., 1858.) He supposed that the dicrotic elevation was due to a wave reflected from the Iliacae communes. He was led to this theory by the erroneous observation of Beau, that abnormal dicrotism never occurs in the lower extremities. Marey's own observations refuted this theory, since they show that the dicrotic elevation is found also in the sphygmograms of the arteries of the leg. (Marey, La circulation du sang, p. 274, 1863.)

[47] Marey, La circulation du sang, pp. 271, 272, 1863. "Dans ces conditions, l'ondée lancée par les ventricules se porte vers la périphérie, et par suite de la vitesse acquise, abandonne les régions initiales de l'aorte pour distendre les extrémités du système artériel. Arrêtée en ce dernier point par l'étroitesse des artères qui lui fait obstacle, elle reflue vers l'origine de l'aorte; mais cette voie est fermée par les valvules sygmoïdes. Nouvel obstacle, nouveau reflux, et par suite nouvelle ondulation (où rebondissement). Ces oscillations alternatives se produisent jusqu'à ce qu'une nouvelle contraction du ventricule vienne y mettre fin en produisant une onde nouvelle."

[48] This view was held by Haller, Bichat, and Bourgelat and goes back to Galen ("Omnes enim clare cernunt, omnes partes arteriarum eodem distendi tempore," De causis pulsi, book 2, c. 8). The first who saw that the pulse did not appear at the same time in all the parts of the body was Josias Weitbrecht, but his observations were neglected until E. H. Weber actually measured the velocity of the propagation of the pulse wave. (His famous thesis of 1827,—"Pulsum arteriarum non in omnibus arteriis simul, sed in arteriis a corde valde remotis serius quam in corde et in arteriis cordi vicinis fieri.") For the results of other measurements see Tigerstedt: Physiologie des Kreislaufes, p. 385, 1894. Some use of these measurements is made in the present writer's L'Analyse des Sphygmogrammes, which is to appear in the Journal de Physiologie et de Pathologie Générale for May, 1906.

"Ihre (der dicrotischen Wellen) Erklärung ist noch nicht widerspruchsfrei gestellt." In the previous editions different views were given, and this critical doubt may be regarded as the final outcome of the investigations of almost half a century.

[64] Sudden compression is the most convenient way of producing a wave in a liquid which is enclosed in an elastic tube. It was used already in the first experiments on the propagation of these waves. (E. H. Weber: Anwendung der Wellenlehre auf die Lehre vom Kreislaufe des Blutes und insbesondere auf die Pulslehre, Berichte d. Kgl. Sächsischen Ges. d. Wissenschaften, Math.-Phys. Cl., p. 177, 1850.)

[69] The special assumption on the rate of outflow is by no means essential for the following theory. Two other possible assumptions are mentioned in the author's "L'Analyse des Sphygmogrammes," and others may be found easily. Every one of these theories is equally probable as long as no experimental evidence can be brought forward. The assumption that the rate of outflow through the arterioles is uniform has the merit that it is the simplest and that it can be deduced from considerations of the average directions of tubes which split up in "every" direction.

[70] A detailed discussion shows that four different cases are possible, but this distinction is of minor importance for the purpose of this paper. The distinction holds that the movement is either periodic or aperiodic.

[77] The exposition of this theory may be found in R. Tigerstedt: Intracardialer Druck und Herzstoss, Ergebnisse der Physiologie, vol. 1, pp. 258-262, 1902. This theory, equally remarkable for its logical beauty and for its confirmation by Edgren's experiments, has not found its way into recently published text-books of physiology, though Edgren's paper belongs to the most frequently quoted publications on sphygmography and cardiography.

[81] The amount of change in the base-line is the chief difference between the sphygmograms and the plethysmograms. It was stated recently that for this reason the plethysmograph could not be used for psychological experiments. An analysis of the mechanical conditions of these two instruments shows that also the sphygmogram must show some plethysmographic influences, and the author supplied experimental evidence for this result.

[82] More recent publications have taken this view. Cohn speaks of "Organgefühle des Gehirns," approaching Meynert's view on the causes of pleasure and pain. (P. Cohn: Gemüthserregungen und Krankheiten, pp. 23 and 50, 1903.) Cohn's book shows clearly that this theory belongs to the type of philosophical explanations. This is also suggested by Duprat who remarked the parallelism between the theories of James, Lange and Ribot, and the theories of certain Greek philosophers. (Duprat: "La psycho-physiologie des sentiments dans la philosophie ancienne," Archiv f. Geschichte d. Philosophie, vol. 18 (3), p. 395, 1905.)

[83] Attention may be called to the fact that this paper arranges the conventional seven degrees of feelings in an order opposite to that of the other papers of this volume; it follows still the earlier traditions of our laboratory, while the more recent investigations call very disagreeable 7 and very agreeable 1; the indifference point remains the same.—EDITOR.

[84] As Mach long ago pointed out, pleasant is a vague term and in itself does not serve as a true descriptive term. Pleasant here applies to both feeling for red and for yellow, but something more is needed to distinguish these very different feelings.

[85] "Irritating" as I shall use the word has no hedonic or algedonic significance.

[126] E. Mach (Analyse der Empfindungen, 1900, p. 161) thinks that his physiological time-unit has become larger with age. And he has also noted that the time-sense differs in animals of the same species which differ in size.

[127] The unbracketed number is that for the males, the bracketed that for the females.

[128] It may be asked in connection with the above statistics, what is the probability that even and uneven digits have unequal chances of occurrence? The analytic treatment of this problem indicates that the probability is ½[1+φ(4.25)] = 0.99999999891 for the males and ½[1+φ(15.93)] for the females. It is therefore almost certain, theoretically, that even and uneven numbers have not the same frequency. See Czuber, Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung, 1903, pp. 158-161. The constants of this problem are in Czuber's denotation, a = 52.308 and b = 222.

[129] The judgments might be grouped in 10 second classes beginning with the lowest number in the experiments, but this would have the disadvantage of rendering the distribution tables or curves for different groups of judgments incomparable.

[131] The distribution may be called regular if the classes increase to a maximum, the mode, and then decrease without interruption. (See Fechner, Collectivmaasslehre, pp. 121-122.)

[132] The values of the means and variabilities was determined to the second decimal for the females, but only to the first for the males; consequently the relative variability could be computed exactly to the first decimal for the females and to the unit only for the males.

[195] If shallowing accompanies quickening, the respiratory activity may be no greater than before; but since depth alterations were seldom observed in these trials after the first day of experimentation, the rise in rate may be taken as a fair measure of the influence of the stimulus.

[217] From the tables (op. cit., pp. 330-339) it seems that the right choices for position, color, and form, were respectively, 40%, 58% and 20%. The comparatively small number of correct position choices was probably due to his using ten boxes instead of six, as in the other two series. My results given in Table XI were secured under almost exactly comparable conditions. Compare results of Kinnaman in case of the Rhesus monkey, op. cit., pp. 130, 131, 134, 141, and 177.
