The Psychology Of The Aggregate Mind Of An Audience PDF Download

Excerpt from The Psychology of the Aggregate Mind of an Audience From a psychological standpoint, man is both an individual and a unit in a group of individuals. The isolated mind has been the subject for the science of psychology during all time, but the scientific study of mind in an aggregation of individuals has been practically left untouched. Yet, from the moment when as a babe he opens his eyes, till his death, man always finds himself a member of some group of minds. In the home, at school, at play, in business, in social gatherings, in church work, and in everything he does, he never acts as an independent, isolated individual, but always as a member of some group. As sure as this is so, is the individual influenced by the minds around him. So we may say that the psychology of the aggregate mind is as broad as the psychology of the isolated mind. In a certain sense of the word, the psychology of the aggregate mind is the psychology of the individual applied to practical life.
