“Some preliminaries (page 22) The first feature is perhaps the one to have suffered most from the recent attacks on the impersonal style of psychological writing.

“Some preliminaries (page 22) The second feature is definitely not open to disregard. This is the requirement, central to the construction of our INTRODUCTION, to substantiate all factual assertions. A factual assertion is simply anything that could prompt your reader to ask 'who says?'. Anything that could be re-written as 'it was found that' or 'it was argued that' or 'it was claimed that' etc., can be regarded as a factual assertion and requires substantiation. You are expected to tell the reader at least by whom it was found (argued, or claimed) and when. So, if you make a firm statement about any aspect of the psychological universe (however trivial), you must attempt to support it.”

“When the cinema lights go down and the movie starts, it's such a relaxing moment knowing you can get away from your problems in the real world temporarily. That's how the film business started in The Great Depression. I've always thought moviegoing was akin to voluntarily retreating into a primal red (theatres are nearly always red) womb-like area where you're fed sustenance in the dark while having surreal experiences.”
