Scope Note
School of psychological thought, founded by J B Watson in 1913, concerned with observable, tangible, objective facts of behaviour, rather than with subjective phenomena such as thoughts, emotions, or impulses - contemporary behaviourism also emphasises the study of mental states such as feelings and fantasies to the extent that they can be directly observed and measured
