hardly adapted to quantitative analysis, owing to the fact that the 
experimenter exhibits the colour together with the fragment of the 
figure, and that the omission of part of the drawing necessarily 
involves the absence of its colour :

The experiments upon P had far advanced, when we noticed that 
the influence of the reproductions of the second sitting upon the 
recognition varied much according as they were dependent upon 
memory or upon imagination. We, therefore, requested M to report 
whether his drawings were based on the one or on the other. P 
could not furnish satisfactory information on this head. 
The recognizing process may be readily traced out along the fol- 
lowing lines : 
A. Recognition of the figures reproduced in the interval. 
B. Recognition of the figures altered objectively at the second 
impression. 
A. The recognizing process reveals the influence of the various 
kinds of reproductions in two ways: 
1. the character of the phenomena 
2. the lengthening or the shortening of the recognition-time. 
As regards the effect of the reproductions upon the character of the 
phenomena, which play some part in the recognizing process, we 
tabulated the relative frequency of recognition and sensation of novel 
experience either for the entire figure or for one or more of its 
fragments. In my calculations I started from 100 experiments for 
the several groups. (See table II p. 1415). 
a. Accurate reproductions. The figures constructed accurately, in 
the interval, are most times recognized directly. (With P only one 
exception in 9 cases, viz. a fragment of the figure is not recognized; 
with M there were only 2 departures from the general rule in 26
