| | For Epicurus, psychology was a branch of physics in subordination to a theory of hedonistic ethics. | | | In empirical psychology, with modern writers, the next step after determining the method of the science is to attempt a classification of the phenomena of mental life. | | | Finally, David Hume, the true founder of the Associationist school of psychology, still further increased the importance of the method of introspective analysis by the daring sceptical conclusions he claimed to establish by its means. |
