Gibson (1904-1979), has been widely adopted in psychology and other fields. Despite this, there remains substantial disagreement about how to understand the concept. Plausibly, the roots of this confusion lie in Gibson's texts, including his examples. I present the first systematic analysis of the examples that Gibson used when explaining the affordance concept. In all, Gibson identifies 188 distinct examples across six texts published in his lifetime and 25 short posthumously published memos. I analyze the examples in terms of their mode of operation, their valence or polarity, and their sociality. This analysis reveals that, for Gibson, the affordance concept is broader than is often presented by later commentators. Affordances are today routinely glossed as \"opportunities\" or \"possibilities for action.\" Gibson did not use these phrases. A number of his examples refer not to potential actions but to other kinds of potential outcomes, including perceptual, metabolic, or cognitive outcomes. I suggest that Gibson's theory of affordances encompasses two distinguishable research objectives, which have often been conflated: a theory of the control of action and a theory of perceptual orientation to meaningful features of the environment.

Like many of his contemporaries, Zhang was a practitioner of scientific psychology and spared no effort to leverage psychological expertise for national progress. However, he distinguished himself through his keen interest in the past and his groundbreaking role in inaugurating the historiography of Chinese psychology. Despite acknowledging Zhang's dual roles as a scientist and a historian, existing scholarship has largely overlooked the potential tensions between these roles-particularly regarding how Zhang understood the historical past and its relationship to the present in an era that revered progress. This article revisits Zhang's engagement with the science and history of psychology in China from the 1920s to 1940s. It argues that his perceptions of the past and present of psychology were associated with his evolving conceptions of progress and science. By the 1940s at the latest, through historical inquiries, Zhang was able, on the one hand, to localize psychology and interlink local knowledge with that of Western centers and, on the other hand, to transcend his professional identity as an experimental psychologist to embrace a broadening field with various competing schools of thought. Through Zhang's case, this article offers a nuanced history of the circulation of modern psychology in Republican China and reveals the origins of Chinese psychological historiography as part of global historical traditions. It contributes to current discussions on the relationship between the past and present of psychology, as well as contextual approaches to the history of psychology.

In 1968, Sokal, an enthusiastic 22-year-old who still looked like a teenager, became the youngest participant in the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Summer Institute on the History of Psychology. This institute led to the creation of Cheiron, the International Society for the History of Behavioral and Social Sciences. It also inspired Sokal's dedication to advancing research in the history of psychology within the larger framework of the history of science. In 1970, he got a position teaching the history of science and technology at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI); he also continued his research in the Cattell Papers at the Library of Congress. Sokal later described a 1971 visit to the Cattell family's home, where, while touring an outbuilding, his wife, Charlene, fell through some floorboards-and uncovered another large cache of Cattell Papers. By 1972, he had completed his dissertation on James McKeen Cattell's early life and psychological career through 1904. Although Sokal would teach in Harvard's History of Science program in 1981-1982 and again in 1993-1994, WPI remained his academic home. Although heart-related medical issues would affect him for the rest of his life, Sokal's scholarship in the following decades was prolific, extensive, and diverse, with publications appearing in the most important journals of psychology, science, and history. In 1988, he became the History of Science Society's first \"Executive Secretary\"-a newly created position. In 1995, Sokal became the coordinator for an NEH-NSF program called \"Integrating Science and Humanities in Undergraduate Education.\" By 1998, he had moved to the Washington, DC area to spend 2 years as director of the NSF's Science and Technology Studies Program. And in 2004, he became the president of the History of Science Society.

However, these historical works often rely on philosophical and theological sources outside the medical field and do not address actual therapeutic practices. This article aims to rectify this oversight by shedding light on the unexplored realm of Ottoman music therapy (OMT) during the early modern Islamic period (ca. 14th-18th centuries). By delving into the utilization of OMT as a treatment for psychiatric disorders, this study seeks to provide valuable insights into the missing therapeutic practices of the era. We demonstrate how Ottoman physicians used music as a medical tool to target illnesses and restore health by prescribing makams (i.e., melodic modes) and implementing music as a treatment modality within hospitals (i.e., maristans). Gaining insight into the OMT theories and practices is necessary to bridge a significant gap in the chronology of contemporary music therapy. Furthermore, the resurgence of makams (also spelled as maqams, makām, or maqām) by the Ottomans in contemporary times has the potential to diversify the range of therapeutic modalities available within the clinical sphere.

In the first part, Abramowski's project is situated within the broader intellectual landscape of 19th- and early 20th-century debates on hidden mental life, including philosophical theories of the unconscious (Herbart, Carus, Hartmann) and clinical research on automatisms, dissociation, and cryptomnesia (Janet, Prince, Flournoy). We also highlight the unique political and cultural conditions of partitioned Poland, in which Abramowski lived and worked. The second and central part of the article examines Abramowski's theory of the normal subconscious, emphasizing his departure from pathological models prevalent in contemporary psychology, as well as his argument that such phenomena can be studied through systematic experimentation. Special attention is devoted to Abramowski's analyses of cryptomnesia, memory, perception, emotional processes, and the \"resistance of the forgotten,\" as well as methodological developments, which position his work at the intersection of laboratory psychology, clinical observation, and philosophical reflection. The final section of the article explores the broader implications of Abramowski's \"experimental metaphysics,\" highlighting its affinities with the ideas of Bergson, James, and Bazaillas. By integrating such diverse traditions, Abramowski's model of the subconscious enriches the polycentric history of psychology and illustrates the diversity of early European approaches to the hidden mind.

Fascism shaped Italian culture by establishing a regime that ultimately denied fundamental constitutional rights, such as freedom of association and political pluralism, and by shifting cultural orientations. Initially rooted in a secular and anticlerical framework, the regime later granted Catholicism a special status, formalized through agreements with the Catholic Church in 1929 (the Lateran Pacts). During this period, key figures in Italian intellectual life, such as Emilio Bodrero (1874-1949)-a nationalist philosopher, rector of the University of Padua, and Undersecretary of the Ministry of Education-rose to prominence. This article will examine his correspondence with psychologists, highlighting how the crisis of Italian psychology was a microhistorical aspect of a broader transformation occurring at the macrolevel across Italian society during the fascist era. Ultimately, the shifts in psychology during Bodrero's tenure coincided with the discipline's wider crisis in Italy. Studying his case may provide an empirical lens for understanding the historiographical concept of crisis.

Descriptions of important contributors and studies that are not widely known or remembered are also included and incorporated into the historical timeline. The first descriptions of probable cases of autism date back to the 18th century, but at that time, the individuals were diagnosed with mental retardation or \"silent madness.\" When the term autism was coined by Eugen Bleuler, it was related to the \"inner world\" to describe severe cases of schizophrenia. The first explicit description of autism, as we understand it today, was published in 1944 by Leo Kanner, who showed both similarities and differences between autism and childhood schizophrenia. Understanding the core problems related to autism took several decades. Groundbreaking studies conducted by Rutter et al. and Kolvin et al. determined that autism was separate from schizophrenia disorder 36 years after its official introduction (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition, in 1980). In 1988, Rutter and Schopler stated that autism had the most validated diagnosis in child psychiatry. However, each subsequent classification introduced major changes and was significantly different from the previous ones. The aim was to optimize the diagnosis and provide optimal care for affected individuals. Our knowledge of autism is broad, and there are still allegations concerning the quality of the currently applicable classifications. Given how many years it has taken and the various approaches that have been used to understand autism, it may indeed be one of the most mysterious disorders in humans.
