Why was cognitive psychology considered a revolutionary development in psychology?
Because it stopped behaviorism from ruling every aspect in the psychology domain. Behavioralism rejects study of mentalistic processes--yes, that's right, thinking. It was important in its day, but for many years it was preventing any progress being made in psychology because no one could study thought process really. Then cognitive psychology came around and showed that there are scientific ways to study mental thought processes, and greatly improved our knowledge of the human mind right from the beginning. So thank heaven for cognitive psychology.
