| A lot of my thinking occurred just before and during the cognitive
revolution and is contrary to the Skinnerian idea that thought does not
cause action.
One of my theories involves the development of intelligence. Take a look at the theorist Galton who is interested in intelligence as well. One of the basic assumptions of my theories is that the mind performs processes that incorporate new information into pre-existing information. This then allows the child to develop and "move ahead" to a higher level of processing. This was influenced by the evolution process made popular by Darwin. This undetectable process of incorporation (i.e., accommodation) is also influenced by Freud's view of the mind as consisting of an active unconscious. Come read about my life history!
