NOW TAKE NOTES!!!!!

Psychological Science is Born Structuralism William Wundt and Edward Titchener studied the elements (atoms) of the mind by conducting experiments at Leipzig, Germany, in 1879.

Psychological Science is Born Functionalism Influenced by Darwin, William James established the school of functionalism, which opposed structuralism.

Psychological Science is Born Inheritable Traits Also influenced by Darwin, Sir Francis Galton believed hereditary traits influenced intelligence and social status.

Psychological Science is Born Gestalt Psychology Max Wertheimer, Wolfgang Kohler & Kurt Koffka believed perception is more than the sum of its parts- it involves a “whole pattern.” The human eye sees the whole image as opposed to two images in one.

Psychological Science is Born Psychoanalytic Psychology = The Unconscious Mind Sigmund Freud and his followers emphasized the importance of the unconscious mind and its effects on human behavior.

Psychological Science is Born Behavioral Psychology Ivan Pavlov and his well known experiments created the concept of “conditioned response” and behavior as a learned process.

Psychological Science Develops Behaviorism John B. Watson (1913) and later B.F. Skinner emphasized the study of overt behavior as the subject matter of scientific psychology.

Psychological Science Develops Humanistic Psychology Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers emphasized current environmental influences on our growth potential and our need for love and acceptance.

Psychological Science is Born Cognitive Psychology Jean Piaget and others focused on how humans process, store, and use information and how that information influences behavior.
