...course, a function of the newness of our science: but nebulousness exists on the frontiers of even the most advanced and rigorous of sciences,-- which we are not. Those of a "factual" inclination, therefore, have every right to suspect that they may be unhappy in any science. We do suggest, however, that even at our present relatively primitive level of theoretical development, our work is of some value to those interested in understanding important areas of behavior.
