Portrait edit

It would be good to have a portrait of Madison Bentley for the article.

It appears that there is a portrait inside this publication: https://www.jstor.org/stable/1418148

But it may have usage restrictions. Born25121642 (talk) 13:58, 12 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

"Theoretical Disposition" edit

This section doesn't seem to make sense at all.

"Bentley opposed both the behaviorism and mentalism movements of psychology. In his view, psychological functions were different." - Different from what?

"They surmounted a distinction between the organism and the environment." - What/ who did?

"The environment was absorbed by the organism." - This is meaningless?

"Research into psychological functions ought to describe the functions modes and derivations." - According to whom? Worded as such, this does not even appear to be attributed to Bentley? S-amf-ninetyseven (talk) 00:24, 11 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
