6. Dr. A. P. Weiss reminds me that such limitations are not restricted to psychology : “The ideal scientific method, ‘to vary only one factor while all the other factors remain constant’, is only an ideal. What we actually do is to keep as many conditions constant as we can and by repetition and variation try to segregate the relative potencies of the elements (often unknown) of the combination which cannot be physically broken up.”
