Wilhelm Wundt is known for establishing the first psychology laboratory in 1879 in Leipzig, Germany. He is considered the founding father of psychology as an experimental and scientific discipline. Wundt's approach, called structuralism, aimed to break down conscious experiences into their most basic elements. Gerhard, as a trainee in his laboratory, would likely be trained in this method of analysis of sensations.
