About the Münster lab http://psychclassics.yorku.ca/Munster/Lab/ Go to the URL, look at the pictures, glance at the contents of the catalog, look at the experiments that were on-going. If you were in that lab, which of these experiments would interest you most?

Münsterberg and the definition of psychology In his APA presidential address, Münsterberg defines the boundaries of psychology in relation to other fields such as history, physics and logic.

Forensics Go look at his writings on forensics at http://psychclassics.yorku.ca/Munster/Witness/index.htm Look at the content of his writings. Choose something to read. Summarize. What do you think?

Industrial Psychology This is the first "official" applied psychology book. What does Münsterberg think of applied psychology? What are the areas of industrial psychology Münsterberg considers important? What do you think of his analysis?

Forensics today APA Division 41 at http://www.apa.org/about/division/div41.html Go to the division site itself What material there is interesting to students? Go to their "links", explore some of the other organizations

Industrial Psychology Today APA division 14 http://www.apa.org/about/division/div14.html Go to the SIOP site. What seem to be some of the important issues today? What materials on there might be of special interest to students?

Applied research relevant to forensics The work of Elizabeth Loftus. Look at her site at http://www.seweb.uci.edu/faculty/loftus/ Read one of her articles. A well-known article that has become a classic is that about creating false memories at http://faculty.washington.edu/eloftus/Articles/sciam.htm

Münsterberg and psychotherapy Wrote Psychotherapy in 1909 advocates a behavioral approach. There is no subconscious --though for a time, he did use hypnosis. Read a 1911 encyclopedia article on psychotherapy that uses Münsterberg as one of its sources. Go to http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/12549a.htm
