Reflections on Behaviorism and Society. Chapter 4: Humanism and Behaviorism. Quote 6

“Do I mean to say that Plato never discovered the mind? Or that Aquinas, Descartes, Locke, and Kant were preoccupied with incidental, often irrelevant byproducts of human behavior. Or that the laws of physiological psychologists like Wundt, or the stream of consciousness of William James, or the mental apparatus of Sigmund Freud have no useful place in the understanding of human behavior? Yes, I do.” (p. 51)
