All imporlant influence of the grade of consciousness is here

 snch a degree that the observations remain independent and that 

 no conceptions of remembrance can be brought into connection with

 present iji acute confusion. The retrograde influence of subsequent 

 work is here not so strong by a gi-eat deal as was the case in the 

 preceding test. This is especially apparent from the following table. 

 Destruction by subsequent work 



In the normals the retrogiade influence is nearly absent, in the 

 dements on the other hand it is very clear. 



The nncertainty of the psychasthenics is apparent in these tests 

 in the same way as in the preceding and again becomes clear if 

 we compare the percentages incorrect answers mntually and the 

 nil-answeis mutually, of all the answers that were not correct.
