George Frederick Stout (; 6 January 1860, South Shields – 18 August 1944, Sydney), usually cited as G. F. Stout, was a leading English philosopher and psychologist.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=George Frederick Stout, 1860 - 1944, Professor of Logic and Metaphysics, University of St. Andrews )〕 Born in South Shields, he studied psychology at Cambridge University from under James Ward. Like Ward, Stout employed a philosophical approach to psychology and opposed the theory of associationism.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=George Frederick Stout )〕 It was as a fellow of St. John’s College, Cambridge (1884–96), that Stout published his first work in 1896: the two-volume ''Analytic Psychology'', whose view of the role of activity in intellectual processes was later verified experimentally by the Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget.〔 Stout was appointed to a new lectureship in Comparative Psychology at the University of Aberdeen in 1896, before becoming reader in mental philosophy at the University of Oxford (1898–1902), where he published his ''Manual of Psychology'' in 1899. This work formulated many principles later developed experimentally by the Gestalt school of psychology.〔 Leaving Oxford, from 1903 to 1936, Stout served as professor of logic and metaphysics at St. Andrews, Fife, where he published another major work, ''Mind and Matter'' in 1931. He remained at St. Andrews until his retirement thirty years later, in 1936.〔 Upon his retirement, George Frederick Stout left for Australia to be with his son. He died in Sydney in 1944. Over the course of his career, Stout taught a number of notable students, including G. E. Moore and Bertrand Russell at Cambridge University. In addition, from 1891 to 1920, he served as editor of ''Mind'', a leading philosophical journal, and was president of Aristotelian Society from 1899 to 1904. In metaphysics, Stout is well known for his contribution to trope theory, specifically in the form of a 1923 paper for the Aristotelian Society. == Significant publications == * ''Analytic Psychology'' (1886) * ''Manual of Psychology'' (2 volumes, 1898-1899) * ''Studies in Philosophy and Psychology'' (1930) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「George Stout」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
