Why does this matter?
This matters, because Wundt’s findings may not be that useful for interpreting human behaviour, as it is too reductionist
Wundt believed in reductionism, so his experiments
Wundt believed in reductionism, so his experiments didn’t assess human behaviour in any valid way
Wundt believed in reductionism, so his experiments didn’t assess human behaviour in any valid way, why?
Wundt believed in reductionism, so his experiments didn’t assess human behaviour in any valid way, because he assessed superficial thought patterns
