This study appears at a time when a decisive turn is due in the
research on personality development. After many years of stagna
tion and misguided research in this field, this book should lead to
a thorough revision and a better understanding of current views on
the factors which have an influence on personality. Let us consider
the unsatisfactory aspects of the recent develop ments in
personality studies. At the beginning of this century, the
revolutionary insight gained ground that personality is susceptible
to various influences, in particular to those resulting from human
interaction. This insight swept away many of the old scholastic
concepts and gained special importance in the fields of pedagogics
and psychotherapy. How ever, in the wake of every great discovery
we find inherent dangers. For years, various claims and creeds on
the malleability of personality have been put forward as if they
were proven facts. Lay literature, too, was permeated with wrong
and distorted information on factors which might endanger child
development."
