“Social Psychology, as the writer conceives it, studies the psychic planes and currents that come into existence among men in consequence of their association.” That is, it must confine itself to the “uniformities in feeling, belief, or volition — and hence in action — which are due to the interaction of human beings.” Here we find a certain field of human experience cut off from the rest, because men and women influence each other within that field. There result certain uniformities from this interaction and this makes the subject matter of the science of social psychology. In the same manner one might investigate the psychology of mountain tribes because they are subject to the influence of high altitudes and rugged landscape. Sociality is for Professor Ross no fundamental feature of human consciousness, no determining form of its structure. Citation: George Herbert Mead. “Social Psychology as Counterpart to Physiological Psychology”, Psychological Bulletin 6 (1909): 401- 408. PERS
