Preface
I have written this manual to accompany the third edition of my book, A Brief
History of Modern Psychology (Wiley, 2018). If you are an instructor using the book for
your classes, I hope this will prove to be a valuable aid to you. If you are a student who
has somehow acquired a copy of this manual, I know that you will dispose of it quickly
without reading beyond this point.
The manual is organized in chapters to match the chapters of the book. In each
chapter you will find four kinds of questions: a) constructs that can be used for
definitions or identifications, b) names and matching terms that can be used in
matching questions, c) multiple-choice questions, and d) essay questions. For each
item I have included the page number(s) where the item appears in the book. For the
multiple-choice questions (16-27 per chapter) I have indicated the correct answer by
asterisk (*). In the matching items I have used an asterisk for a different purpose. There
it means that those items should not appear in the same matching question so as not to
create more than one right answer. If this seems confusing, it will not be when you look
at the actual matching items. In a number of cases there are several possible matches for
one individual, e.g., Wilhelm Wundt with voluntarism or apperception or
Völkerpsychologie. Clearly you can use only one of those in a matching question, but I
wanted you to have all the choices.
If you are using my book and this test manual, it would be helpful to me
(especially for future editions) if I could hear from you. I welcome your comments on
