This chapter looks at written letters and publications that have survived from an earlier time. It describes key finding from the nineteenth-century psychology labs, which established the thoroughly social way students were required to bring their life habits into sync with each other so they would be able to produce comparable data. It also mentions Lewis Henry Morgan, who is one of the earliest anthropologists in America and wrote treatises on the American Indians of the northeast, wherein sprouts of that work became ethnography. The chapter recounts the beginnings of experimental psychology in Wilhelm Wundt’s psychological laboratory in Leipzig, Germany, with its introspective methods. Foreshadowing contemporary psychology, the experiments in Wundt’s laboratory all depended on the precise measurement of time intervals.
