5 days agoThe Roots and Evolution of Psychological Science
It's rooted in old philosophy but runs today on experiments, observation, and data. Back in the late 1800s, Wilhelm Wundt had the bold idea to treat consciousness like something you could study in a lab, the same way you might study a chemical reaction or a falling apple. But people aren't atoms. We don't follow fixed laws. We're emotional and shaped by the world around us. Context, memory, trauma, culture, and love all matter.
