What reading level is Elements of Human Psychology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After the fostering age is past, family ties rest more and more on a social basis.
The defensive and aggressive instincts are not always opposite alternatives, as one might suppose. Fighting and fleeing are alternative ways of responding to the same stimu- lus; but many defensive instincts have no counterpart in the aggressive group. The covering and home-making instincts in primitive man are instances of this; they arose because man needed protection from rain and cold. In civilized man these ...instincts have developed into clothing and constructing tendencies. The constructing instinct has had far-reaching results in the sphere of invention.
240 INSTINCTIVE BEHAVIOR [CH. X The clothing instinct and the modesty instinct are apt to be confused. If we trace them back to their primitive forms, covering and shyness, the distinction is more obvious. Shy- ness is connected with our personality; covering has to do with our body. In civilized life modesty is a defense measure against the attacks on our mental privacy, while clothing is a means of protecting the body.
