The psychology of learning || Stewart H. Hulse

Charles E. Osgood, best known for his semantic differential technique and work on psycholinguistics, wrote this volume as a systematic introduction to experimental psychology, bridging theory, method, and research practice.

Key Features:

• Historical context of experimental psychology’s development.

• In-depth discussion of scientific method applied to psychology.

• Extensive coverage of experimental design, measurement, and data analysis.

• Exploration of theoretical perspectives underlying different experimental approaches.

• Emphasis on objectivity, replicability, and validity in psychological science.

It became a seminal mid-20th century text, often cited in discussions of methodology and psychometrics, particularly before the rise of cognitive psychology in the 1960s.
