Affections and feelings.--Perceptions are complexes of sensations, and feelings are complexes of affections. In the preceding chapter we grouped all psychic complexes whose chief constituents are sensations, and in the present chapter we shall consider, in like manner, all experiences in which affection is predominant. Again we must remind ourselves that few experiences are exclusively composed either of sensations or of affections: our classification rests wholly upon the relative importance of these elements of consciousness. As the word perception may be used to denote the general class of sense-complexes, so we may use the term feeling to denote affective complexes.
