What did Wundt and Titchener contribute to psychology?
Wilhelm Wundt began his psychology career by studying and applying science to the study of the human mind. His students were taught to study the structure of the mind. He believed thoughts, emotions, and experiences composed the human mind. These were of course, non-physical aspects of psychology. Because of this, he believed that people had to objectively think about their thoughts; this came to be known as objective introspection. For instance, holding a pencil in hand and describing every feeling and touch. This is objectively describing a physical object. Wundt is known as the Father of Psychology because of his attempt at bringing objectivity into psychology and he was the first one to think in such a manner. Edward Titchener, a student of Wundt, built on Wundt's foundation of objective introspection. His newfound perspective was called structuralism, which focused on the structure of the mind. He believed that mental activities, emotions, and thoughts could be readily broken down into elements. Titchener further believed that people could not only introspect physical objects but also thoughts. For example, he would give students a color and describe and ask about it: "What is red? What things are red? Red seems very warm, etc." Because of Wundt and Titchener, structuralism dominated the study of psychology until the 1900s. Their perspectives gave rise to other scholars that had their original take on psychology, such as William James and Sigmund Freud.
