I will pay for the following article The Life and Works of Titchener and His Influence on Modern Psychology. The work is to be 7 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page. According to Titchener, sensations and thoughts were structures of the mind and this concept of his came to be known was structuralism. This paper will discuss the life and works of Titchener and his influence on modern psychology.

Titchener, born in 1867 in England, lost his father at a very early age and had little monetary security. He studied at Oxford and concentrated upon philosophy for four years while in the fifth year he became a research assistant to Burdon Sanderson, the physiologist. While still at Oxford, he was drawn to Leipzig, where he found himself amidst an enthusiastic group of young future psychologists. It was dissatisfaction with what he called the "logical constructions of the English school," that drew him to Leipzig. He saw very little of Wundt while at Leipzig, but Wundt made a life-long impression. Under the influence of Wundt, Titchener had a driving motivation to demonstrate that psychology was a science. He could assimilate that the concern of psychology is the systematic, experimental study of the normal, adult mind.

In 1892, Titchener received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and returned to England. He then accepted the position of Assistant Professor of Psychology at Cornell University. More importantly, he was in charge of the laboratory his friend Angell had founded the year before. Between 1893 and 1900 Titchener set up the laboratory, carried out research and published 62 long and short articles. More and more students were drawn to him. In 1895, Titchener became the associate editor of The American Journal of Psychology. This journal served the same function for him as the Philosophische Studien did for Wundt. In 1921 he became the sole editor of the journal. Titchener was of the firm conviction that graduates in psychology from Cornell formed their own group, united by the same psychological orientations. This differentiated them from the rest of the psychological world.&nbsp.Professor Titchener received honorary degrees from Harvard, Clark, and Wisconsin. He was the Associate Editor of the American Journal of Psychology and authored a number of books on psychology.&nbsp.
