Psychology’s Roots
Structuralism – School of psychology
that stressed the basic units of experience (physical sensation, feelings, and memories) and the combinations in which they occur.
Study these ‘atoms of experience’ to get the structure of the mind

The Growth of Psychology
Sigmund Freud: Psychodynamic psychology Behavior results from forces at work
within the individual, often at an unconscious level
Late 1800s Hard to prove or disprove scientifically
![Page 19: AP Psychology Growth of Psychology. Psych Immersions? (Connections to something else in psychology, another text, or your world.) Critical questions.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032611/56649e7c5503460f94b7ecb6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Return to the observable in the early 1900s
John B. Watson: Behaviorism Studied only observable behaviors Expanded upon the work of Pavlov
B.F. Skinner: Behaviorism revisited Expanded behaviorism Viewed the mind as a “black box” that
was irrelevant

Several perspectives can provide insight into behavior
![Page 24: AP Psychology Growth of Psychology. Psych Immersions? (Connections to something else in psychology, another text, or your world.) Critical questions.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032611/56649e7c5503460f94b7ecb6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Psychology’s Big Issues
Nature-nurture controversy Are we a product of innate, inborn tendencies controlled by
our genetic make-up? Are we a reflection of experiences and upbringing?
Person–Situation Is behavior caused by factors inside the person or outside?
Stability–Change Are behavior patterns learned in childhood permanent or do
people change over time? Diversity-Universality
How am I like every person, like some people, and like no one else?
Mind–Body What is the relationship between the mind and the body?
