Psychologists and Physicians in the Borderlands of Science, 1900-1942 PSYCHOLOGISTS AND PHYSICIANS IN THE BORDERLANDS OF SCIENCE, 1900-1942 By WADE EDWARD PICKREN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1995 For my mother: WILLIE MERLE PICKREN, and in memoriam, BILL PICKREN, You taught me to love and work. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my deepest gratitude to the chairman of my dissertation committee, Donald A. Dewsbury. Dr. Dewsbury has, from the beginning of this long project, been a model of encouragement, kindness, and unfailing generosity. He has shared his time, his great breadth of learning, his editorial ability, and his materials with me. My understanding of the history of psychology has been greatly deepened by our conversations. I also wish to acknowledge that Dr. Dewsbury has helped me to understand that data is a plural! Dr. Wilse B. Webb has also stimulated much thought in me about what I was doing and where I was going with my ideas. Although I did not avail myself of his wisdom as oft as I would have liked, his voice and his sharp eye were always with me. I hope that, in the future, time will allow me a greater opportunity to benefit from his great knowledge and experience. Both near at hand and from afar, Dr. Toby Appel has blessed me with the keenness of her insight . Her acceptance and friendly corrections of my halting efforts to write history have been much appreciated. One of my most pleasant memories of this experience is that of sitting at a table at iii Cafe Gardens talking about the history of biology or psychology, while hoping to hear some Van Morrison on the house music system. Those were the days! I must acknowledge that all the members of my committee have been supportive. I salute Drs . Griggs and Capaldi for their willingness to support me as I attempted something new in our psychology department. Dr. Fred Gregory was always willing to listen, even though he was inundated with his own work and students in the Department of History. I wish to express my appreciation to him. I also wish to thank the archivists at the National Academy of Sciences, the National Library of Medicine, and the Rockefeller Archive Center. Their helpfulness and thoughtfulness made my task much easier. Friends have been helpful in many ways. For my friend, Bob Swoap, no words can describe what his friendship has meant to me over the last six years. To you, long-waisted cowboy! April O'Connell has been a faithful friend and a wise colleague. Margret Cook offered her gentle wit and kindness, as well as her eagle eye, on earlier drafts of this manuscript. Thank you! To my many brothers and sisters, I offer thanks for their support and patience with me. It is great to be part of such a good family. I thank them for making me laugh so often and so well. I also wish to thank my mother, whose love has been my IV ! foundation all my life. Her belief in me has been my inspiration. With all my love, thank you. Finally, I must reserve my greatest appreciation and thanks to Jane, Emily, and Graham. Their love and support has been incredible throughout this long endeavor. Thank you As Van Morrison once said, "It's too late to stop now!" v TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS m ABSTRACT viii INTRODUCTION 4 Disciplines, Boundaries, and Borderlands 3 Borderland Science and Foundations 9 Boundary Work in Psychology 12 Historiographic Note 28 Notes 30 CHAPTERS 1 FELLOW LABORERS: CULTIVATING THE BORDERLANDS OF PSYCHOLOGY AND PSYCHIATRY, 1900-1920 38 Introduction 40 Invitation to a New Borderland of Science 48 Boundary Expansion: Psychologists and Psychopathy g g Psychology and Medical Education 74 Psychologists' Research on Medically Relevant Topics 106 Conclusion 144 Notes 445 2 CONTROLLING SEX IMPULSES: PSYCHOLOGISTS AND THE COMMUNITY OF SEX RESEARCHERS, 1921-193 0 166 Introduction 170 The Founding of the Committee for Research on Problems of Sex 181 Psychological\Psychobiological Approaches to Sex Research 200 Conclusion 264 Notes 269 vi 3 MEDICINE FOR MODERNS: PSYCHOLOGISTS AND THE FASHIONING OF PSYCHOSOMATIC MEDICINE, 1930-1942 293 Introduction 295 Psychoanalysis and Experimental Psychopathology. 306 Convergence of Pathways to Psychosomatic Medicine 33 8 Psychosomatic Medicine 354 The New Field of Psychosomatic Medicine 359 Conclusion 3 62 Notes I!!!!!.*.*.’!!.'.’!!.’.’ 357 EPILOGUE 384 Links to Post-World War II Clinical Psychology. 384 Psychosomatic Medicine and Health Psychology. 389 * Notes 3 92 APPENDICES A ROBERT YERKES' PROPOSED SEX RESEARCH PROGRAM. ... 394 B FRANK LILLIE'S PROPOSED SEX RESEARCH PROGRAM.... 398 BIBLIOGRAPHY 401 BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH at,o Vll Abstract of Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of the University of Florida in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy PSYCHOLOGISTS AND PHYSICIANS IN THE BORDERLANDS OF SCIENCE, 1900-1942 By Wade Edward Pickren May 1995 Chairman: Donald A. Dewsbury Major Department: Psychology The central argument of this dissertation is that psychologists availed themselves of opportunities offered to them in the first four decades of the twentieth century to expand the boundaries of their discipline. The expansion of the boundary between psychology and medicine through the creation of shared "borderlands" is the focus of this study. Three case studies are used to illustrate the interaction of multiple factors in the development of these borderlands. The first case is located in time in the years, 1900-1920. Psychologists responded to the invitation of psychiatrists to work with them in the explication of mental disorders. Psychologists were able to move beyond the parameters of the invitation to secure a niche for their expertise in psychiatric settings. The second case study presented here is the work of viii psychologists during the 1920s in the borderland of sex research created by social concerns and philanthropic interests in social engineering. Although this area had traditionally been the preserve of medical expertise, psychologists were able to establish themselves as important contributors to the scientific understanding of sex and as competent managers of a large scientific enterprise. The third case study concerns the work of psychologists in the development of a new borderland of science in the 1930s: psychosomatic medicine. Psychologists' contributed to this new field in two ways. First, they utilized an experimental methodology to investigate theories about human mental dysfunction. This work served as a bridge to physicians who were also interested in psychological factors in human illness. Secondly, psychologists contributed organizational leadership that provided an institutional framework for psychologists and physicians to jointly develop psychosomatic medicine. This study takes a contextualist approach to the understanding of psychologists' involvement in borderland science. Attention is given to the social, intellectual, and practical contexts of this involvement. I rely on primary, archival, and secondary sources to fashion a narrative about a hitherto unexplored part of the modern story of psychology. IX . INTRODUCTION All natural sciences aim at practical prediction and control, and in none of them is this more the case than in psychology today. We live surrounded by an enormous body of persons who are most definitely interested in the control of states of mind, and incessantly craving for a sort of psychological science which will teach them how to act . What every educator, every jail-warden, every doctor, every clergyman, every asylum-superintendent, asks of psychology is practical rules. Such men care little or nothing about the ultimate philosophic grounds of mental phenomena, but they do care immensely about improving the ideas, dispositions, and conduct of the particular individuals in their charge 1 (William James, 1892) The extension and expansion of psychology along a boundary shared with medicine through opportunities offered and taken by psychologists in the first four decades of the twentieth century is the concern of this work. The central argument of the chapters that follow is that these opportunities sprang from particular social contexts and that the growth of the relationship between psychology and medicine was due to the complex interaction of social, intellectual, and institutional factors. The three case studies used to illustrate this interplay are the movement of psychologists into psychiatric settings in the first two decades of the twentieth century, the involvement of psychologists in sex research in the 1920s, and the 1 2 contribution of psychological research in experimental psychopathology to the fashioning of the new interdisciplinary field of psychosomatic medicine in the 1930s. These three case studies illustrate the importance of social and institutional factors in the growth of the discipline of psychology. The importance of disciplinary intellectual ideals in shaping that growth is also demonstrated in these three cases. I wish to show that these case studies are particularly good examples of disciplinary expansion through applied science. The move to application represented by these cases is indicative of the convergence of social and intellectual interests in the first part of the twentieth century and this history is a needed addition to the existing scholarly literature on the development of psychology as a science-based profession. Recent scholarship in the field has moved from general histories of psychology to more specialized studies of particular facets of the discipline. These studies have tended to be sensitive to the social context of disciplinary growth. The expansion of psychology through application has been the focus of much of this recent, critical scholarship. Psychology's expansion along borders shared with education, forensics, advertising, and industry has been the subject of several recent studies. Scholarly studies of psychologists' interactions with physicians in mental testing, 3 developmental studies, and the neurosciences have added to our understanding of the growth of psychology through application.

  • 'Introspectionism' and the Mythical Origins of Scientific Psychology
    Consciousness and Cognition Consciousness and Cognition 15 (2006) 634–654 www.elsevier.com/locate/concog ‘Introspectionism’ and the mythical origins of scientific psychology Alan Costall Department of Psychology, University of Portsmouth, Portsmouth, Hampshire PO1 2DY, UK Received 1 May 2006 Abstract According to the majority of the textbooks, the history of modern, scientific psychology can be tidily encapsulated in the following three stages. Scientific psychology began with a commitment to the study of mind, but based on the method of introspection. Watson rejected introspectionism as both unreliable and effete, and redefined psychology, instead, as the science of behaviour. The cognitive revolution, in turn, replaced the mind as the subject of study, and rejected both behaviourism and a reliance on introspection. This paper argues that all three stages of this history are largely mythical. Introspectionism was never a dominant movement within modern psychology, and the method of introspection never went away. Furthermore, this version of psychology’s history obscures some deep conceptual problems, not least surrounding the modern conception of ‘‘behaviour,’’ that continues to make the scientific study of consciousness seem so weird.

Introduction Probably the most immediate result of the acceptance of the behaviorist’s view will be the elimination of self-observation and of the introspective reports resulting from such a method. (Watson, 1913b, p. 428). The problem of consciousness occupies an analogous position for cognitive psychology as the prob- lem of language behavior does for behaviorism, namely, an unsolved anomaly within the domain of an approach.

  • Psychological Bulletin
    Vol. 19, No. 8 August, 1922 THE PSYCHOLOGICAL BULLETIN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE HISTORY OF PSYCHOLOGY— 1916-1921 By COLEMAN R. GRIFFITH University of Illinois Contributions to the history of psychology since 1915 fall nat- urally into two groups. There are, on the one hand, the systematic and the experimental studies which have made the science six years older. There are, on the other hand, the historical and biographical notes and the large and searching retrospections which relate con- temporary psychology to earlier stages in the development of the science. It is to an enumeration of these contributions that the present paper is devoted. We cannot, of course, comment in detail upon the character of contemporary psychology, for an historian, speaking of his own times is like the Hawaiian surf-rider who seeks to judge the incoming tide from his experiences while riding a single wave; but it is possible to get a certain amount of information about the current trend of a science by considering events of various kinds which reflect or which have, presumably, influenced its general course. These events taken in conjunction with what appear, at the present moment, to be outstanding experimental and systematic studies may give a suggestion of the history of the last few years. In psychology, as well as in many other sciences, the most important event, during the period under survey, was the World War. The science of psychology was, as all know, well on the way toward complete mobilization for military purposes when the war ended. Since many of the consequences of this reorganization have not yet appeared, a detailed account of this aspect of the period must fall to a future historian.

    Critical Noles. [Jan. ARTICLE X. CRITICAL NOTES. ROYCE'S "CONCEPTION OF GOD.") THIS work is a report of a discussion held before the Philosophical Union of the University of California in 1895. It coittains the leading address of the symposium by Professor Royce; remarks, critical and con­ structive, by the other participants in the discussion; and finally a sup­ plemental essay by Professor Royce in which he develops more thor­ oughly his central doctrine, and replies to his critics. It is apparent, from Professor Royce's introductory remarks, that the Philosophical Union of the University has beeu studying his work, "The Religious Aspect of Philosophy." .. Were there time, I should be glad indeed if I were able to throw any light 011 that little book. But my time is short. The great problems of philosophy are pressing. It is the death of your philosophizing if you come to believe anything merely be­ cause you have once maintained it. Let us lay aside, then, both text and tradition, and come face to face with ollr philosophical problem it­ self" (pp. 5, 6). This seems to breathe a spirit of admirable candor; but if, as we shall find later, the conclusions of Royce's present discussion are utterly irreconcilable with his results in .. The Religious Aspect," it would seem more candid, and also a saving of time, at least for the stu­ dents of the Philosophical Union, to recognize and deal thoroughly with this fact at the outset. In seeking a philosophical conception of God, Royce begins with the idea of an Omniscient Being.

  • Freud: Memory and the Metapsychological Witch
    Freud: Memory and the Metapsychological Witch Manuel Batsch Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University College London 2015 I, Manuel Batsch confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to express my deep gratitude to my supervisors, Juliet Mitchell and Liz Allison for their excellent guidance and generous encouragement during this project. Thanks to their benevolent attention and intelligent advice, I was able to construct and structure my research question. Our supervision meetings were crucial steps in the writing of my thesis and they also remain in my memory as transformative existential moments. I was impressed by the accuracy with which they read and corrected my drafts, a process from which I learnt a great deal. Psychoanalysis and Feminism is an important book in my inner library and often, when I feel threatened by a kind of intellectual inertia, I just have to reread some of its passages to regain a pleasure for thoughts. The seminars and supervisions with Juliet Mitchell have always triggered the same pleasure and inspired in me a form of bravery in thinking. I have been working under the supervision of Liz Allison since my MSc dissertation and throughout these years she has given me the confidence to compose academic work in English. Amongst many other things, I owe to her my introduction to a completely new reading of Derrida. Our Bion reading group was also extremely helpful and had a significant impact on my understanding of metapsychology after Freud.

  • Radio-Electronics in Education
    RADIO ELECTRONICS Published by Department of Information RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA 30 ROCKEFELLER PLAZA, NEW YORK, N. Y. FOREWORD 1 1 is booklet presents briefly the various types of aid which radio, both as a science and as a system of communication, renders to the cause of education. DI Education is as old as civilization itself; radio is one of civili- zation's newest products. It is therefore too early to appraise the ultimate extent or influence of their relationship. Enough has already been accomplished, however, both in the field of broadcasting and in the use of new educational techniques made possible by radio research, to prove that the importance of radio in the educational field is profound and far-reaching. New developments in radio and electronics, such as televi- sion and the electron microscope, are of the utmost significance to the future of education. It may be argued that the future of education is of slight interest when civilization is locked in a life-and-death struggle with forces which seek to destroy it. On the contrary, I believe it is a subject of major importance at this time. For the civilization of free men and women will triumph in this war, and the vital need for wise, courageous leadership will be more insistent in the post-war generation than ever before in historv. The education of both adults and children — and of the many, not the few — will stronglv influence the choice of poli- cies and of leaders capable of establishing and maintaining a better world for all humanity.

  • The Hiring of James Mark Baldwin and James Gibson Hume at Toronto in 1889
    History of Psychology Copyright 2004 by the Educational Publishing Foundation 2004, Vol. 7, No. 2, 130–153 1093-4510/04/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/1093-4510.7.2.130 THE HIRING OF JAMES MARK BALDWIN AND JAMES GIBSON HUME AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO IN 1889 Christopher D. Green York University In 1889, George Paxton Young, the University of Toronto’s philosophy professor, passed away suddenly while in the midst of a public debate over the merits of hiring Canadians in preference to American and British applicants for faculty positions. As a result, the process of replacing Young turned into a continuation of that argument, becoming quite vociferous and involving the popular press and the Ontario gov- ernment. This article examines the intellectual, political, and personal dynamics at work in the battle over Young’s replacement and its eventual resolution. The outcome would have an impact on both the Canadian intellectual scene and the development of experimental psychology in North America. In 1889 the University of Toronto was looking to hire a new professor of philosophy. The normally straightforward process of making a university appoint- ment, however, rapidly descended into an unseemly public battle involving not just university administrators, but also the highest levels of the Ontario govern- ment, the popular press, and the population of the city at large. The debate was not pitched solely, or even primarily, at the level of intellectual issues, but became intertwined with contentious popular questions of nationalism, religion, and the proper place of science in public education. The impact of the choice ultimately made would reverberate not only through the university and through Canada’s broader educational establishment for decades to come but, because it involved James Mark Baldwin—a man in the process of becoming one of the most prominent figures in the study of the mind—it also rippled through the nascent discipline of experimental psychology, just then gathering steam in the United States of America.

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1956 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. RAYMOND DODGE 1871-1942 BY WALTER R. MILES N HIS FRESHMAN YEAR at Williams College, Raymond Dodge kept I a diary. Its early entries reflect a sensitive, meditative boy, rather lonesome and homesick, finding his chief solace in thinking about the sermon which President Carter had preached the first Sunday of the school year. But he showed himself capable of "adaptive adjust- ment," to use a phrase of his mature years, and at the end of a month was able to say, "Everything is fine." His mother had visited him, his first examination in Greek had not turned out as badly as feared, and he had decided to stay at the college and work in the library during the Thanksgiving vacation. Of this vacation period he recorded, "I stayed here all the time, wrote my editorial for the Weekly, worked up my debate, and read 'Wallace on Darwinism' and 'A naturalist's voyage around the world' by Darwin. I wanted to get a deeper in- sight into Darwin's theories and didn't know when I could do it if not during this vacation." Turning this diary over and beginning at the back, one finds the note which he wrote after reading Darwin's "Voyage."
