Psychology has come a long way; “American psychology at the start of the 20th Century was the psychology of human consciousness and mental life” (Davis, Stephen F. & Buskist, William, and 21st. Century Psychology: A Reference Handbook, February 19, 2008). Introspection was the first study of psychology; follow came Structuralism and Functionalism, Behavioral, Humanism, Psychoanalysis, and cognitive; these are the major school of thoughts of psychology. Before psychology was born, specialist would study the biological process of the nervous system and chemicals, called biopsychology. Altogether is the “Foundation of Psychology.”
Introspection
A man from Leizig, Germany was the first that founded psychological laboratory. He study what went through peoples mines when they were completing a task. Wilhelm Wundt called these studies introspection, what is our min “The inner world cannot be observed with the aid of our sensory organs” (Kohut, Heinz, Introspection, Empathy, and Psychoanalysis an Examination of the Relationship between Mode of Observation and Theory, October 17, 2013). “Our thoughts, wishes, feelings, and fantasies cannot be seen, smelled, heard, or touched” (Kohut, Heinz, Introspection, Empathy, and Psychoanalysis an Examination of the Relationship between Mode of Observation and Theory, October 17, 2013). “This is observation by an individual of his own conscious action” (Myerson, Abraham, The Foundations of Personality, 2005). “It is also called subjective observation; it is a direct observation of fact” (Myerson, Abraham, The Foundations of Personality, 2005). “Psychology is a part of the scientific study of life, being the science of mental life” (Myerson, Abraham, The Foundations of Personality, 2005). What Introspection was looking at in people were a study outside the realm.
