STRONG CLAIMS ABOUT UNCONSCIOUS PROCESSING ARE UNJUSTIFIED Recently, there has been widespread focus on studies of unconscious processing that have come out of the field of “social priming” (Doyen et al., 2012; Yong, 2012; Shanks et al., 2013). This focus has primarily been on their replicability (Pashler and Wagenmakers, 2012) and attendant claims of statistical and methodological impropriety ...

Humans enjoy a private, mental life that is richer and more vivid than that of any other animal. Yet as central as the conscious experience is to human life, numerous disciplines have long struggled to explain it. The present paper reviews the latest theories and evidence from psychology that addresses what conscious thought is and how it affects human behavior. We suggest that conscious though...

A short review of the development of experimental psychology from an Estonian perspective is presented. The first rector after the reopening of the University of Dorpat (Tartu) in 1802, Georg Friedrich Parrot (1767-1852) was interested in optical phenomena which he attempted to explain by introducing the concept of unconscious inferences, anticipating a similar theory proposed by Herman von Hel...

Research on entrepreneurialism and strategic thinking has taken a cognitive and constructivist turn in recent years. Such a turn is to be welcomed. However, what remains relatively unexplored, even within this 'softer' approach to entrepreneurial strategising, is a sustained focus on the underlying perceptual mechanisms shaping the processes of cognition and sensemaking. This paper seeks to ext...

From the process of organic evolution to the analysis of insect societies as self-organizing systems, biology is full of awe-inspiring examples of complexity arising from simplicity. Yet in the contemporary study of animal cognition, demonstrations that complex human-like behavior arises from simple mechanisms rather than from 'higher' processes, such as insight or theory of mind, are often see...

different angle from the angle of Types. In both cases there is no detailed analysis of the process, or part of the process, going on in a patient. It is true that the Psychology of the Unconscious dealt with clinical material but it dealt with a neurotic process which individuation is not, it is normal or supernormal.

My work in cultural psychology – i.e., sociocultural theory – has two branches. One is the study of psychological phenomena as cultural phenomena. The other is the study of the discipline of cultural psychology as a cultural phenomenon. By this I mean the concepts and methods and interventions that the discipline employs, and the cultural factors that shape them. The discipline of cultural psyc...

Brosschot et al. in this issue [1] make a cogent and compelling argument for researchers to pay more attention to the role of unconscious processes. They argue that the prolonged physiological activity of the type that that produces wear and tear on the body and eventual stressrelated illness may be more due to unconscious worry and distress than researchers have previously recognized. This unc...
