An attempt is made to apply the concepts of psycho-analysis to intelligence and the higher mental functions. Intelligence, consciousness, intuition, perception, reasoning, logical comprehension, social aspects of language, understanding, invention, judgement and interpretation are considered. An analysis is made of the mental processes, the psychic dynamisms, the instinctual forces and fundamental impulses entering into each of the higher mental functions, with clarifying illustrations from psychopathology.
