Opis

Excerpt from The Use of Personal Documents, in Psychological Science The Book that lies before the reader attacks a double problem central not only to social psychology but to much of all social science: What materials tell us what goes on in people's minds? How are valid generalizations to be made on the basis of such materials? To understand man in society it is apparent that we must come to know the mental states of particular men in particular societies. But the ways we have of learning these mental states are not, we feel, adequate, and we encounter difficulty in devising ways to test conclusions based on the evidence we have as to mental states. The situation ... suggests something in the nature of a dilemma. On one hand, the study of social life seems to require the understanding of the factor of human experience. This subjective aspect must be secured... Studies which confine themselves to "objective factors" remain inadequate and one-sided. Yet the identification of the human experience or subjective factor, seemingly, is not made at present in ways which permit one to test crucially the interpretation. The words quoted were written by Dr. Herbert Blumer, and have reference to this central problem as it arose in his evaluation of The Polish Peasant in Europe and America by W. I. Thomas and Florian Znaniecki as a product of research in social science. The work of Thomas and Znaniecki represented a turning point in the development of social science method.
