The word "Janet" appears only once in Varieties, in this sentence:
In the wonderful explorations by Binet, Janet, Breuer, Freud, Mason, Prince, and others, of the subliminal consciousness of patients with hysteria, we have revealed to us whole systems of underground life, in the shape of memories of a painful sort which lead a parasitic existence, [235] buried outside of the primary fields of consciousness, and making irruptions thereinto with hallucinations, pains, convulsions, paralyses of feeling and of motion, and the whole procession of symptoms of hysteric disease of body and of mind. Alter or abolish by suggestion these subconscious memories, and the patient immediately gets well.
So I think it is misleading to say, "James incorporated aspects of Janet's theories into his 1902 book, The Varieties of Religious Experience". First of all there is only one theory. Secondly, by grouping him with five others, including Freud, I don't think "incorporated aspects of Janet's theories" is warranted. You could probably come up with something more accurate, but it isn't worth it IMHO for such a minor mention by James in Varieties, especially given that the rest of the paragraph already details James' debt to Janet more thoroughly. djlewis (talk) 23:16, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe James did incorporate Janet's theories more substantively into Varieties, just not specifically attributed. But that would require a scholarly citation.djlewis (talk) 23:54, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
