At this point I will wait for a sign that you can &quot;handle&quot; it. I have provided sufficient guidance to the 1000 pages of essays, doing all I can

Yes, gentle-persons, At this point I will wait for a sign that you can &quot;handle&quot; it. I have provided sufficient guidance to the 1000 pages of essays, doing all I can. Final Discussion: At this point I will wait for a sign that you can &quot;handle&quot; it. I have provided sufficient guidance to the 1000 pages of essays, doing all can. You may put questions here (under this Discussion), and IFF I feel there some clear indication that you have tried as you should and as you might, I might try (or try again) to provide guidance. BUT, at the very least: FINISH EVERYTHING FIRST. Lastly, for now: the key essential HINTS: (1) DEFINE NOTHING FOR YOURSELF and LET NO ONE ELSE/ NOTHING ELSE DEFINE ANYTHING FOR YOU (with the &quot;exception&quot;, noted next). In short, INSTEAD, COMPLETELY: Count on the SUBJECT MATTER (JUST count ON all observations OR QUITE POSSIBLE OBSERVATIONS) for ALL PERSPECTIVE, ETC. AND FOR any further perspective or understandings needed, at this point, and for _____ALL____ fundamental understandings -- including FOR THE DEFINITIONS OF EVERYTHING: terms, perspective, concept-terms or ANY hint of a &quot;model&quot;. (2) Be VERY OPEN MINDED: JUST look to observations AND possible observations to &quot;see&quot; (you can only imagine that there will be patterns therein -- and I indicate the most likely). And count on NOTHING ELSE (anything and everything else you need should follow from that). ACCEPT EVERYTHING POSSIBLE AND/OR INDEED-POSSIBLE FROM THAT REALM, aka from Reality (sequential .phenomenology). The Method noted under my Profile will not hurt and may help.

Anxious to get &quot;the ball rolling&quot;, I offer possible fame if one be my editor and fortune if one defeats me

Anxious to get &quot;the ball rolling&quot;, I offer possible fame if one be my editor and fortune if one defeats me. (So one way or another: a studious one should not lose.) The details can be found via this link to a Discussion . https://www.researchgate.net/post/Editor_Co-author_of_my_Collected_Essays_on_behavioral_science_Needed_its_on_ethology_ontogeny_developmental_psychology_and_general_psychology , and my &quot;Answer&quot; posts under the Question, https://www.researchgate.net/post/Why_is_there_a_weak_interest_in_qualitative_research_among_researchers

Absolutely the very last Addendum to the BOOK, &quot;Essentially, all Recent Essays on Ethogram Theory&quot;

Absolutely the very last Addendum to the BOOK, &quot;Essentially, all Recent Essays on Ethogram Theory&quot; has the pdf name Absol_the_last_addendum_TO_BOOK.pdf Like the other 2 addenda to this BOOK, it is under &quot;Linked Data&quot;. A direct link to the &quot;Essentially, all Recent Essays on Ethogram Theory&quot; BOOK is : &quot;Essentially, all Recent Essays on Ethogram Theory&quot; And then look for the &quot;Linked Data&quot; associated with that BOOK and, in particular, for: Absol_the_last_addendum_TO_BOOK.pdf . For the other 2 addenda to the BOOK (also under the &quot;Linked Data&quot;), see: paradigmShiftFinal.pdf and finalfinal3-converted.pdf (these where the first and second addenda, respectively; the new one, just noted is the third and final Addendum)

More Science Reasons to want to Investigate the perspective of my writings

More Science Reasons to want to Investigate the perspective of my writings (these ARE in ADDITION to reasons in the Project Details of this Project): Adding to the merits claimed for the papers, one must add the following (these may be even more important): (1) Only this developmental psychology theory (ethology) credibly integrates 'innate factors' &amp; 'learning' so BOTH simultaneously have effect. All the BEST other developmental psychology theories do is talk about 'learning' involved &amp; talk about 'innate' involved &amp; do so separately, back &amp; forth repeatedly. PLUS: This ethological cognitive-developmental psyc. THEORY (innate/learned) does it with absolutely the most empirical (grounded-in-observable) approach possible. Again, it only recently has become totally possible to verify the hypotheses. (2) These papers outline the overtly observable foundations for levels of abstraction; though subtle, this makes 'abstraction' concrete (and in a sense not 'abstract') and is the basis for a total empiricism in behavior observation. Finally, (3) With this perspective, the following requirement is met: All explanatory perspectives must conform to the established limitations of working memory (and have conscious and deliberate development occur there, by its increments). Outside of the episodic memory context and other well established contexts/procedures, working memory basically is like short-term memory, limited to 7 + or - 2 &quot;chunks&quot;. AND, in an important way: All that has to be done has to be done there; if too much is necessary and is new one can expect some innate guidance, which (in my view) can be as minimal as perceptual biases (conceived broadly and conforming to major necessary patterns 'seen').

Editor/Co-author of my Collected Essays (on behavioral science) Needed

Editor/Co-author of my Collected Essays (on behavioral science) Needed I have approximately 1000 pages of essays on new, more-empirical perspectives for Psychology (esp. General Psychology and Developmental Psychology -- but relevant and important for Psychology in general). It is all about BEHAVIOR PATTERNS (and associated &quot;environmental&quot; aspects, these _OFTEN_ broadly conceived) and a science of finding the further behavior patterning therein, and a patterning of those patterns, etc.; AND THAT IS ALL : In other words, the writings outline the discoveries likely possible and necessary for a true and full behavioral science of BEHAVIOR PATTERNS (&quot;just behaviors&quot;) PER SE (&quot;behaviors&quot; then seen, as must be the case, as aspects of Biology (adaptation) unto themselves); it is much related to classical ethology perspectives and research. RELATED TO ALL THIS: There is an expressed great hope for some technology being the &quot;microscope&quot; of Psychology for good/closer/better and/or NEW observations; there are likely sets of adaptive behavior patternings and associated environmental aspects within quite-possible, if not VERY likely, SETS of situations (with the important &quot;environmental&quot; aspects/circumstances there, BUT the KEY environmental aspects will also be across KEY related/in-some-ways-similar -- and memorable -- circumstances). This is how/where related behavior patterns COULD COME TO BE OBSERVED in situ, AND even seen as they develop : even the subtle behavior patterns, etc., therein, truly-seen and clearly seen and truly and fully discovered _and_ seeing some key adaptive &quot;operations&quot; thereof. AND there is some detailed phenomenology described that allow one to arrive at testable hypotheses and then also indicating how this same basic sort of essential observations shall also naturally PROVIDE the actual ability to test these testable/falsifiable hypotheses. I am looking for a skilled reader and editor to read/edit my written works AND THEN put them together in a most sensible manner. This person must know the field of Psychology as a whole and must understand possibilities of ontogeny. Also she/he should have a healthy respect and very high regard for KEY foundational observations (always such AS CENTRAL). Know of the Memories (all the sorts, now rather well-researched) as providing for phenomenological EXPERIENCE ITSELF and for connections, as indicated above. Any one &quot;fitting this bill&quot; AND WILLING, and otherwise ABLE, I would gladly have. Doing such substantial editing/proof-reading/rearranging/publishing is enough for me to see you as a co-author and therefore I would put you as second author on all the book's covers. After publication, you (given details we shall decide upon well ahead of time) shall have a good and fair portion of any money reaped.
