Scientific
One strength of Wundt's work is that some of his methods were
systematic
and
well-controlled
:
All
introspections
were recorded in
controlled
environments
Procedures were
standardised
This suggests that Wundt's research can be considered a
forerunner
to later
scientific
approaches in psychology, such as the
behaviourist
approach
Subjective data
One limitation is that other aspects of Wundt's research would be considered
unscientific
today:
Wundt relied on participants
self-reporting
their mental processes, which is
subjective
Participants may have
hidden
some of their thoughts
Hard to
generalise
This suggests that some of Wundt's early efforts to study the mind were
flawed
and would not meet the criteria of
scientific
enquiry today
