Note 119 — Chapter X
Reading edition
Wundt refers these errors to variations in the state of preadjustment of the attention to impressions and representations, according as they succeed one another slowly or rapidly. There is little doubt that the effects of the state of tension of the apparatus of attention, are involved here, though I am disposed to think that Wundt makes too much of this circumstance. (See Physiologische Psychologie, pp. 782, 783. I have given a fuller account of Wundt's theory in Mind, No. i.)
