Stream of Consciousness
I’ve heard of this before, but officially learned through PSYCH101.
William James introduced the useful metaphor of the Stream of Consciousness to psychology. He argued that conscious thought shared many characteristics with water moving through a channel. Like a stream, thought flows continuously and is dynamic (constantly changing). Sometimes thoughts are calm but at other times they can be turbulent, and thoughts can have depth.
- There can be qualitative change or quantitive change
