Yep,I find that European institutions are likely to accept generalistic
ideas like that of Neisser's.I had a colleague
from either Wales or Scotland who had a Sc.D degree from one of those
British isles institution who admired Neisser,
However,he was denied tenure because he was too generalisti.c.Uric reminds
of William James.

Dear Tipsters,
I have read Ulric Neisser's work with interest. He has written on many
topics, ranging from cognitive psychology, to memory in everyday life, to
the nature of intelligence. I met him once at a face processing conference
in Aberdeen in Scotland. He gave a fascinating talk which was substantive
but delivered with style and with appropriate humour. From his work and from
having the opportunity to speak with him at this conference, I can vouch for
his highly inquisitive mind, which he applied to psychological questions
using both traditional and nontraditional methods.
One thing I learned from his research is not to put my valuables in
hard-to-find/unusual places (particualrythe oven) when I go on vacation.
Sincerely,
Stuart
