Wilhelm Wundt is often considered to as the father of psychology as he was the first to dedicate himself to experimental psychology
one of wundts approaches was structuralism because he used scientific methods to study human consciousness by breaking its structure into smaller components
he developed a method called introspection
what is introspection?
it is essentially "looking into" oneself to observe ones thoughts and feelings - studying your own conscience
the first lab dedicated to experimental psychology was made in 1875
