If the process of integration is replaced by and large with a process of association, what does it do to the process of conceptualization?
-
Association presupposes enough familiarity with the elements associated that encountering one can lead specifically to the other.
I assume by the process of integration, you mean chiefly concept-formation? If so, think of associated things such as lightning and thunder. One wouldn't think of them as being the same, just associated.
Is that on topic?

This was a rewording from Ayn Rand Letter: 'The Missing Link'. "In the brain of an anti-conceptual person, the process of integration is largely replaced by a process of association."
