I am in general agreement with Toomela’s (Integrative Psychological and Behavioral Science doi:, ) plea for an alternative psychological methodology inspired by his description of the German–Austrian orientation. I will argue, however, that this alternative methodology has to be based on the classical ergodic theorems, using state-of-the-art statistical time series analysis of intra-individual variation as its main tool. Some more specific points made by Toomela will be criticized, while for others a more extreme elaboration along the lines indicated by Toomela is proposed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
