Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Wilhelm Wundt was a German physician and philosopher, not an American philosopher. Ivan Pavlov was a Russian physiologist, not an American philosopher or an Austrian physician. B.F. Skinner and John B. Watson were American psychologists, not philosophers or physicians. John Locke was an English philosopher and René Descartes was a French philosopher and mathematician, but they did not directly contribute to the development of psychology in the way that William James and Sigmund Freud did. James developed functionalism, one of the earliest psychological theories, while Freud developed psychoanalysis, a major approach to psychotherapy.
