54 THE SOCIAL THEORY OF GEORG SIMMEL gy, social psychology is related to it in the same way as physiological psychology. The latter investigates the way in which the psychic process is determined by its relation to the body, the former the way in which it is determined by its relations to other minds.! Social psychology deals in the last instance with the same problem as psychology, namely, the form and the laws of the psychological processes in the individual mind. The distinction originally pointed out between sociology and psychology therefore also holds good for sociology and social psychology. Thus the difference between psychology, sociology, and the social sciences rests on the distinction between three categories of cognition and results from the different stand- points from which the socio-historical actuality may be viewed. Sociology is a different science, separate and dis- tinct from psychology and its branch, social psychology, on the one hand. and from the social sciences on the other. i Soz., pp. 557-61.
