Paper Summary:
The paper explains how in early theories that focused on cognitive processes, theorists used a philosophical approach to their work rather than a scientific approach that was based on physical study. Prior to the work of Ebbinghaus, there were several individuals in the field of philosophy that developed theories of memory and cognition. In the 1700s, David Hume wrote a "Treatise of Human Nature" in which he discussed his notions that within what he believed to be the matter of the mind there were both impressions and ideas.More papers on Philosophy and Cognitive Theories:
