Here is a "wordle" I created based on the entire text of John Dewey's
1896 article, "The Reflex Arc Concept in Psychology," first published in
/Psychological Review, 3/, 357-370 (voted by psychologists the most
influential article in the first 50 years of /Psych Rev/).

There is some evidence of a synchronicity of heartbeat of mom and the fetus.
Could this be construed as early Pavlovian or Mama-lovian conditioning?

Miguel- Very interesting. That the AP "decision" to reverse historical use of
this word (in order to make it easier on patients?) is correct, according to
the head nincompoop, because "we made the decision". That seemed to be the
position as it appeared in this article. We made the decision so

Hi
It is also strategically wise to be inclusive. What would happen to reporting
if all PhD level academics insisted that they be referred to by the title of
Dr. Blank (an unfortunate albeit perhaps apt conjunction of terms!). I doubt
AP style requirements would last long.

APA's guild mentality strikes again. This time it is actually
counter-productive to their efforts. Notice their reasoning: Psychologists
should be able to be referred to as doctors because it shows their equality
with medical doctors. What they should say is that Ph.D.'s in Psychology
