A scientist who examines the shape of the head to determine causes of human behavior would likely be known as a phrenologist. Phrenology is a pseudoscience that suggests personality traits can be determined by studying the shape and features of the skull.
A phrenologist specializes in the study of the shape and contours of the skull, believing that these features can indicate a person's character traits and mental faculties. This pseudoscience, popular in the 19th century, posited that different areas of the brain corresponded to specific characteristics, such as intelligence or personality traits. Although phrenology has been discredited and is not considered a legitimate science today, it historically influenced early psychology and neuroscience.
