Excerpt from Psychology and Industrial Efficiency Clear, concrete illustrations which demonstrate the possibilities of the new method. In the follow ing pages, accordingly, it will be my aim to ana lyze the results of experiments which have actu ally been carried out, experiments belonging to many different spheres of economic life. But these detached experiments ought always at least to point to a connected whole; the single experiments will, therefore, always need a general discussion of the principles as a background. In the interest of such a wider perspective we may at first enter into some preparatory questions of theory. They may serve as an introduction which is to lead us to the actual economic life and the present achievements of experimental psychology.
