AP Learning Objectives
I. History and Approaches (2–4%)
Psychology has evolved markedly since its inception as a discipline in 1879 . There
have been significant changes in the theories that psychologists use to explain
behavior and mental processes . In addition, the methodology of psychological
research has expanded to include a diversity of approaches to data gathering .
AP students in psychology should be able to do the following:
• Recognize how philosophical and physiological perspectives shaped the
development of psychological thought .
• Describe and compare different theoretical approaches in explaining behavior:
— structuralism, functionalism, and behaviorism in the early years;
— Gestalt, psychoanalytic/psychodynamic, and humanism emerging later;
— evolutionary, biological, cognitive, and biopsychosocial as more
contemporary approaches .
• Recognize the strengths and limitations of applying theories to explain behavior .
• Distinguish the different domains of psychology (e .g ., biological, clinical,
cognitive, counseling, developmental, educational, experimental, human factors,
industrial–organizational, personality, psychometric, social) .
• Identify major historical figures in psychology (e .g ., Mary Whiton Calkins,
Charles Darwin, Dorothea Dix, Sigmund Freud, G . Stanley Hall, William James,
Ivan Pavlov, Jean Piaget, Carl Rogers, B . F . Skinner, Margaret Floy Washburn,
John B . Watson, Wilhelm Wundt)
