The British Psychological Society's contributions to psychological research are memorialized in The British Journal of Psychology, 1910, Vol. 3. The British Psychological Society (BPS) is a representative body for psychologists and psychology in the United Kingdom. The BPS maintains several journals which publish psychological studies.The British Journal of Psychology, 1910, Vol. 3 is a good example of the rigorous standards professionals must adhere to in order to be published by a peer-reviewed journal. The compilation of scholarly articles covers many different topics of interest to researchers. The articles follow research guidelines, setting forth the subject to be studied, presenting the methodology of the study, presenting the results and making general conclusions. A few of the articles deserve special attention. "Natural History of Experience" by C. Lloyd Morgan argued for a non-reductive view of human psychological abilities, viewing human experience in the widest sense. Morgan was arguing against psychologists who were in thrall to the eugenics movement. "The Colour Preferences of School Children" presents extensive research on the colour preferences of children of both sexes as they age. It concludes that colour preferences are strongly red and yellow but begin to change as the children age and develop intellectually. There is some evidence that colour preference is a function of intellectual development rather than age, but further studies were needed to know whether colour teaching could truly affect intellectual capacity.Although some of the equations presented alongside the research may seem complicated at first, the results of the studies are not. A general readership can definitely understand the theories, tests and results presented by The British Journal of Psychology, 1910, Vol. 3.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
