註釋
George Barton Cutten (1874-1962) was a Canadian-born psychologist, moral philosopher, historian and university administrator. In 1892, he enrolled at Acadia University, and there he joined the varsity rugby team and within three years had led the team to victory over rival Dalhousie University, in 1895. He earned his BA in 1896 and a year later he was ordained a Baptist minister. He went on to Yale University and by 1902 he had earned a degree in divinity and a PhD in psychology. At Yale, he continued his outstanding career as a football player and on Sundays he served as a preacher at local churches. His thesis was titled The Psychology of Alcoholism which he would publish, in revised form, in 1907. At Yale, he obtained a position as professor of moral philosophy, but he returned to Acadia in 1910. He was president of Acadia University from 1910 to 1922 and Colgate University from 1922 to 1942. Other works include: The Psychological Phenomena of Christianity (1908), Three Thousand Years of Mental Healing (1911), Mind: Its Origin and Goal (1925) and The Threat of Leisure (1926).
