ABSTRACT

La actual psicología de los motivos y emociones es tributaria de las condiciones en las que surgió y se consolidó el estudio científico de estos procesos en el primer tercio del siglo XX, tanto si se mira a los avances realizados como a los problemas que lastran sus desarrollo. En este artículo se analizan las aportaciones del psicólogo norteamericano Paul Thomas Young (1892-1978), una figura clave en la psicología de la motivación y emoción cuya modernidad no ha sido suficientemente valorada. Su teoría hedónica constituye un hito en este campo y su libro Motivación of Behavior, Publicado en 1936, es el primer libro de base empírica dedicado íntegramente a la motivación. Young puede considerarse así un pionero de la “psicología dinámica experimental” cuya obra es de gran interés para el estudio de los procesos afectivomotivacionales


Today´s motivation and emotion psychology stems from the conditions under wich the scientific study of both proceses emerged and was consolidated, in the first tirad of the 20th century. This applies if we consider both the progress made and the obstacles that have hindered its development. This paper focuses on the contribution made by the US psychologist Paul Thomas Young (1892-1978), a key figure in motivation and emotion psychology whose modernity has not yet been fully valued. His hedonic theory is amilestone in this field and his book Motivation of Behavior, published in 1936, is the first empirically based book entirely dedicated to motivation. Young can be considered a pioneer in dynamic “experimental psychology”; his works are highly relevant to the study of affective-motivational processes

ABSTRACT

Santiago Ramón y Cajal made his mark in the history of science as a brilliant researcher of the histology of the nervous system. His bold efforts and the international recognition he received during his lifetime played an important role in the consolidation of the Spanish Neurohistological School which is composed of a large number of eminent disciples. Amongst these, and of outstanding repute, is Rafael Lorente de Nó whose research had a significant influence on the work of Canadian psychololgist Donald O. Hebb and, consequently, on the development of neurophysiological theory. This paper analyses some of the contributions of Cajal and his disciple Lorente de Nó which formed the anatomical and neuropsychological framework of contemporary psychology.

ABSTRACT

La actual psicología de los motivos y emociones es tributaria de las condiciones en las que surgió y se consolidó el estudio científico de estos procesos en el primer tercio del siglo XX, tanto si se mira a los avances realizados como a los problemas que lastran su desarrollo. En este artículo se analizan las aportaciones del psicólogo americano R. S. Woodworth (1869-1962), las cuales jugaron un papel crucial en este proceso, paralelamente al declive de las grandes teorías de base instintiva (AU)
