Introduction to Psychology (Psychology)

Recall cards on the foundations of psychology. What is psychology: the scientific study of the mind and behavior, the scientific method, hypotheses and theories, and psychology as both a natural and a social science. The history of psychology: Wundt and the first laboratory, voluntarism and introspection, James and functionalism, Titchener and structuralism, Freud and psychoanalysis, Gestalt psychology, behaviorism, humanism, and the cognitive revolution. Contemporary psychology: the subfields from biopsychology and evolutionary psychology through developmental, personality, social, industrial-organizational, health, clinical, counseling, and forensic psychology. And careers in psychology: the PhD and the dissertation, the PsyD, master's-level careers, faculty roles, postdoctoral training, and licensure.
