ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY CHAPTER I THE SUBCONSCIOUS 1. The Subconscious Defined The term "subconscious," or as it is sometimes called "Unconscious," has been distorted by popular usage to mean almost anything beyond the pale of ordinary experience. It is applied in these pages only to certain wellattested psychological phenomena, phenomena which present themselves in different ways varying according to the standpoint or experience of the observer. The student of mental disorders interprets the subconscious in terms of derangement of certain functions of the nervous system; to one interested in the functions themselves, the subconscious means an inability to reproduce, at will and without the aid of a special technique, the images of past experiences; the psychologist regards the subconscious as an independent consciousness, coexistent with the healthy consciousness but detached from it. Let it be stated at the beginning, however, that while this detached portion of consciousness is able to do any mental task, it cannot, however, perform so-called supernatural feats, at least so far as any reliable scientific evidence has shown. If the mind of an individual, suffering from hysteria, for example, is possessed by a system of independent, subconscious ideas, (or complexes as they are technically termed) of which the individual's personality is ignorant or unaware and yet that personality is under the control of these complexes, the term dissociation is applied to this group of independent, subconscious ideas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1926, a complement to the author’s Outline of Psychology, this book surveys the field of neurotic and mental disorders in so far as they are not due to gross organic lesions. It discusses this principal types of mental process that are abnormal or disorderly in the sense that they are departures from the fully waking processes of the normal mind, seeking to understand them in terms of the general principles laid down in the earlier volume. Sleep, the influence of drugs and suggestion, conflict and repression, automatisms and somnambulisms, morbid fears, obsessions and impulsions, perversions, delusions, exaltation and depression, multiple personalities, psycho-therapy, and the schools of abnormal psychology – these and many others are the topics discussed from the point of view, not of medical practice, but of psychological theory. A book, not for the medical expert only, but for every man or woman interested in the riddle of human personality.
