"Reasonable" Men? Why You NEED to Study the History of Psychology

In this introduction to studying the history of psychology, I begin by talking about Young and Hegarty's (2019) article on how sexual harassment and the norms of conduct in social psychology have changed over the decades. Their historical analysis has caused one major psychological organisation to change the name of its top scientific prize. I then go on to talk about other reasons why studying the history of psychology matters. Here's the reference for Young & Hegarty: Young, J.L., & Hegarty, P. (2019).
