Borrowing freely from Freud, Piaget, and others, this article compares and integrates primary (emotional) and secondary (intellectual) process according to seven distinct but overlapping structures: (1) weight; (2) pathways; (3) time and space; (4) operational dialectic; (5) sources of energy; (6) morality; and (7) historical antecedents. Primary processes should be taught and related to secondary processes. (Author/CP)
