Holism is the view that by dividing experience up into different categories — fact and value, science and religion, art and morals — we end up treating a universe that is a living, integrated whole as though it were a machine with detachable parts.
Rather than dividing experience into two parts -- the experience in the moment, and thoughts and feelings about that experience -- any resistance is now included as part of the present moment.
For example, William James (1902) divides experiences into "healthy-minded" and "sick-minded," according to the personality of the subject, which colors the content of the experience itself.

Without these concepts, which divide experience into inner and outer worlds, we would hardly be able to imagine that people who seem remarkably different from us on the surface might be alike on the inside.
To evaluate the model fit, we divided experience into 30, 15 and 10 categories corresponding to intervals with length 1, 2 and 3 and performed the likelihood ratio test for goodness-of-fit (to this end, we compared the baseline Model 1 to a multinomial distribution; see the Appendix for more details).
