Excerpt from Interference and Adaptability: An Experimental Study of Their Relation Lation With Special Reference to Individual Differences
This is also true of smaller groupings of individuals. Giddings10 makes a classification of religions on the basis of their tendency to break away from hidebound custom. Conversion is a distinct type of changed reaction to life and often presents marked interference. In every condition of life there are interferences of the old situation and adaptability to the new. A strange citizen in a new country, a boy from the farm in the city, the freshman in the college, and the institutional lad on the streets are all familiar examples. A perfect adaptability to all situations is the result of long and varied experi ence. Adaptations are thus a large part of the activity of any ex panding organism.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed study of interference and adaptability with a particular focus on individual differences. The author approaches the subject through a series of experiments that place subjects in conditions where they are asked to override a well-practised habit with a new one. Through the analysis of individual responses, the author explores the rate at which individuals adapt to these new situations and the extent to which the interference effect of the old habit influences this adaptation. The book complements a previous work by German experimental physiologist Hugo Münsterberg and expands on the ideas of Miiller and Schumann, Bergstrà m and Baird. This book will be of particular interest to students and practitioners of experimental psychology, as well as those working in related fields that touch on adaptability and the overcoming of ingrained habits and associations.
