History and Approaches (Oct 5)

You are at a lecture about the history of psychology and the speaker states that Wilhelm Wundt's theory of structuralism was the first scientific psychological theory. On what historical fact might the speaker be basing her or his argument?

Wundt was internationally known at the time, and this lent credence to his theory in the scientific community.

Wundt studied under Ivan Pavlov for his graduate traiing, and Pavlov required scientific methods to be used.

Structuralism was based on the results of his introspection experiments, so it is, at least in part, empirical.

Structuralism was vased on careful anecdotes gathered from Wundt's extensive clinical career.

Wundt was the first person to study psychology in an academic setting.
