Gilbert Simondon needs a mentionon this page. His work is where Brian Massumi and Gilles Deleuze ultimately derive their conceptions of individuation from.

[edit] Summary/Disambiguation Needed

This page does absolutely nothing to tell me what individuation is. It uses a bunch of loaded, obfuscated language used by the psychologists that came up with the terms used. It should have a summary with an example that a layperson in psychology can understand(someone like me). Also the comment on individuation wrt economics seems like it should be disambiguated. If it does relate to the concept in psychology, it should be explained how it relates.

I definitely agree with this. This article doesn't explain what individuation is. A simple example alone would vastly reduce this problem. — metaprimer (talk) 01:24, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
