| Abstract: | Examines what is known and knowledgeably held about the nature and character of the referents of W. James’s (1910 [1987]) concept of the stream of consciousness (SEC) as part of a series of articles by T. Natsoulas (see PA, Vols 81:12842, 82:463, and 82:17). C. M. Aranosian’s (see record 1982-31246-001) account of those temporal sections of the SEC during composing and improvising that consist of auditory musical imagery is described. E. R. Steinberg’s (see record 1984-14149-001) argument against the SEC technique of writing literature as providing a poor simulation of an SEC when compared with what might be accomplished by programming a present-day computer is discussed. Furthermore, findings by L. T. Davis and P. L. Johnson (see record 1984-28685-001) that no mental activity was reported 10% of the time by the Subjects in an experiment using random thought-sampling are presented.
