Abstract

The paper enquires into some aspects of the concepts of responsibility, reality and determinism in order to examine the relationships of these elements with educational theory and practice. It reviews the current views on responsibility and reality as determinate and principal causative factors in mental health and maturity and suggests a mode of human functioning in which a meaningful synthesis of these concepts is possible. Included in the discussion are some of the educational implications for teachers •and parents.
