Science and Human Behavior, Chapter 18: The Self, Quote 4

Science and Human Behavior“It is easy to overestimate the unity of a group of responses, and unfortunately personification encourages us to do so . . . [and] may lead us to expect consistencies and functional integrities which do not exist. The alternative to the use of the concept is simply to deal with demonstrated covariations in the strength of responses.” (p. 286)
