Types of Thinkers.

alienist divided into three types, according
these images are of hearing seeing speaking The
man of the first type hears mentally the words of his
thought, as if pronounced by another; those of the
second type read :hese words as if written before
them those of the third type utter the words them
selves. mentally These types, however, not rig
orously separate. may belong to two or to all
three, and there intermediate sorts. more re-

the following:-The "verbo- audtive,' which hears
words mentally but does not articulate them; the
auditive motorverba" which both hears and articu-
lates either simultaneously or successfully; the
'Verbomotor," which must articulate mentally when
thinking, but has soundmage; the '7erbo-visual-
MOTOR, which both pronounces and reads the words:
the verbovisual," which merely sees them; the 'au

words without articulation, and the indifferent"
which uses sometimes method of thought and
sometimes another. 1t is proposed to investigate
many thousands of persons to ascertain the relative
