In looking at the physical, on the other hand, and at what physical science has to say about it, some people—and in this respect psychology has a long history—believe that we must regard the mental as the really effective cause of the physical; others believe that we must regard the physical as the really empowering element, and the mental only as a kind of effect of it. The unsatisfactory nature of both views has been perceived by recent psychologists. They have therefore set up the curious theory of psycho-physical parallelism, according to which one cannot say that the body affects the mind or the mind the body, but only: corporeal processes are parallel to mental ones, and mental processes to bodily ones; one can only say what mental processes accompany the corporeal or what corporeal ones the mental.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Indem sie nach der anderen Seite, nach dem Körperlichen hinschauen und nach all dem, was die äußere Naturwissenschaft über dieses Körperliche zu sagen hat, sind dann die einen - und die Seelenkunde hat in dieser Beziehung eine lange Geschichte — der Meinung, man müsse das Seelische vorstellen als die eigentlich wirksame Ursache des Leiblichen; die andern sind der Meinung, man müsse das Leibliche ansehen als das, was das eigentlich Kraftende dabei ist, und das Seelische nur als eine Art Wirkung des Leiblichen. Das Unbefriedigende dieser beiden Anschauungen haben neuere Seelenforscher oder -denker durchschaut, und sie haben daher die sonderbare Anschauung von dem psychophysischen Parallelismus aufgestellt, nach welcher man nicht sagen kann, das Leibliche wirke auf das Seelische oder das Seelische auf das Leibliche, sondern nur: leibliche Vorgänge seien dem seelischen Geschehen parallel und seelische Vorgänge dem leiblichen; man könne immer nur sagen, welche seelischen Vorgänge die leiblichen begleiten oder welche leiblichen die seelischen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":179,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/83/1922-06-02/p011"}],"english":["GA 83/1922-06-02/p011"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":179,"en_words":162,"ratio":0.91,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.94,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6877,"original_word_count":7314,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"B.
