History and Systems of Psychology
Karl F. Muenzinger (1885– 1958) believed that study of the history of psychology can help develop an overview of the discipline and integrate the perplexing, apparently unrelated variety of material encountered in diverse psychology courses. Muenzinger developed the idea of the emergence of the science of psychology late in the 19th century as the product of five major scientific and three significant philosophical trends (physiology, biology, atomism, quantification, and the founding of laboratories; and critical empiricism, associationism, and scientific materialism). That perspective serves as the foundation for this course.
