The author deplores the psychological ignorance of educators who teach 'social living' and the miscalled 'social sciences'. Because of unreconciled childish impulses almost everyone suffers from a 'split personality'. Religiomoralistic sentimentalism and antiscientific methods for promoting social progress among our moralists and educators are held responsible.

The future social scientist and educator must become conscious of former unconscious conditions which controlled his own past choices. His educational aim must be directed at accelerating the natural processes of psychosexual maturing and psychosocial evolution.

The author gives an elaborate and incomprehensive classification of 'various subjective factors' influencing psychological maturing from the prenatal stage to old age and death.
