RE:ÊÊ Comments on your COLLOQUIUM Presentation, Psych.dept. 11/13/18

I was very interested in the remarks you made regarding the interdisciplinary possibilities in the Social Sciences. I wish to contribute the following perspective from Social Psychology and Psycholingusitics (my own specialty). The Table on the next page lists the concepts you presented, arranged in three groupings of concept universes corresponding to the schema below:

AÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ BÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ C

STRIVING ISSUESÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ ~ PLANNING ISSUES÷ MAPPING ISSUES

By dividing all your concepts in these three separate categories, I am able to see relations between them more clearly. This appears ¥~especially advantageous when I compare what other concepts in political science I already have in my Dictionary of Concepts. Thus I am showing the contrast in Table 1 between your concepts and the concepts of Neubauer and Heenan who were Colloquium speakers before you. Youâll notice that all three of you use concepts that (a) fall radicaly into the three basic phases of a BEHAVIOR UNIT (MOTIVATIONAL, PLANNING, AND MAPPING issues), and (b) that fit in with each other very coherently.

For further theoretical cross-fertilization, I present the following correspondences that might suggest to you theoretical extensions and further explanations of your own concepts since they ought to behave conceptually in accordance with the correspondences:

RE:ÊÊÊÊÊ MEMO REGARDING YOUR COLLOQUIUM PRESENTATION TODAY

You may recall I asked you a question, or rather, made a comment to the effect that there appeared to be a psychological correspondence between your three principal concepts and the traditional psychological division of behavior into three components of MOTIVATION (will, intention, commitment, drive, etc.), BELIEF (plan, theory, hypothesis, analysis, etc.), and STYLE (overt, visible component of behaviors). I am enclosing the notes I took during your presentation. As you can see, I use a form called the ãgraphic conceptä to locate your concepts as they appear in the stream of your talk. I am currently developing this method of ãlisteningä and ãorganizingä scientific concepts and have other applications should you be interested in seeing them.

To explain. According to the graphic concept analysis of your presentation, it is obvious that your ideas fall appropriately into the threefold psychological organization defined by the graphic format, namely MOTIVATIONAL OR STRIVING ISSUES -- these appear in the innermost circle of the various displays; then all the concepts you use that relate to PLANNING ISSUES appear in the intermediate circles, and in the outer circles appear all the concepts you use that relate to visible MAPPING ISSUES. Thus we can make the following graph-table display of your principal ideas as follows:

three concept universes. These are independent theoretically, ther if they are found correlated in any one study, the indication is the~ the conditions are such as to₁created the correlation, and this need to be explained according to the individual case.

Some conclusions that may be drawn from organizing your concepts in this threefold psychological organization:

1.ÊÊÊÊ All data on PREFERENCES correspond to the psychological component of MOTIVATION (drive, commitment, intention, will, etc.); all data on DOMINATE correspond to the psychological component of PLANNING (belief, opinion, assumption, theory, analysis, etc.); and all data on EFFECTIVE will correspond to the psychological component of MAPPING (actions, decisions, sets, behaviors, styles, etc.). Since each psychological component is distinct and has a particular operation associated with it, it is potentially useful to know these relations between the MANAGEMENT components and the PSYCHOLOGY components. Is It?

2.ÊÊÊÊ All PREFERENCE data will be related to DOMINANT data and to EFFECTIVE data in a manner of prior to ulterior, as in the series ORIGIN leading to CAUSE eventuating in EFFECT. Thus:

PREFERENCE data originate DOMINANT data, which cause EFFECTIVE data

3.ÊÊÊÊ Similarly:

COMMUNITARIAN . .ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ NATIONAL k k ELITE BUREAUCRACâ~ ETHIC originates PLANNING ~ causes STYLES OF BEll?

5.ÊÊÊÊ Along with these concepts there are many others that relate to them and be drawn upon for finding explanatory correspondences. E.g.:

This system comes from eighteenth century scientist/philosopher Emanuel

Swedeborg~ not known at all today. If this is meaningful to you, I would be happy to explore the method further with you and show you my other correspondences. This system helps organize theory building, helps organize oneâs listening to ~lecture, helps organize oneâs concepts. It is a listening tool as well as a thinkinq tool.
