Mental adaptation
A considerable portion of mental adaptation takes place unconsciously and involuntarily under the natural guidance of the facts presented to the attention. If this adaptation has become sufficiently comprehensive to embrace the vast majority of the occurring facts, and subsequently we come upon a fact which runs violently counter to the customary course of our thought without our being able to discover at once the determinative factor like]y to lead to a new differentiation, then a problem arises. The new, unusual and marvelous act as a
stimulus, which irresistibly attracts attention. Practical considerations or even bare intellectual discomfort, may engender a volitional frame of mind requiring the removal of the contradiction, or a consequent new mental adaptation.
