Hence the absent-minded- ness and automatism undoubtedly observable in hysterical subjects. In Janet's view hysterical symptoms may be dependent upon a fixed idea, but it is the effect of the fixed idea and not the idea itself which is pathological l ; like Lowenfeld 2 he holds that hysteria is not ideogenesis. In this way he separates himself from Bernheim, Dubois, Grasset, and others, who believe that hysteria is closely allied to, if not identical with, insanity. On the other hand, Janet inc...ludes some conditions (such as copralalia and echolalia and other mental symptoms) as hysterical which most people regard as belonging rather to the category of in- sanity. Janet further holds : I. That since many hysterical symptoms, such as right-sided paralysis with aphasia, follow the laws of similar organic symptoms which the patient cannot know, the patient cannot be accused of voluntarily producing or shamming these symptoms. 2. That in the determination (initiation) of hysterical symptoms certain contributory causes are necessary, such for instance as (a) an exhaustion of the higher functions of the encephalon ; or (b] a lowered nervous tension dependent either on heredity, puberty, local lesions, intoxications, physical or intellectual fatigue, or emotion.
