I'm putting together notes for an upcoming episode which I've decided would be on the idea of showing listeners that while they might first associate psychology with Freud and Pavlov, they really know (or at least are somewhat familiar with) more studies/concepts from our field than they realize. I scoured a few sources and come up with the list below, which was surprisingly longer than I thought it would be, but I may be stretching things in some cases as well as completely missing the obvious. If you could suggest an addition to the list that would be much appreciated. I'll post the complete list once I get everyone's feedback. Remember: these are not what we as teachers would consider important in the history of psychology - just events/ studies/concepts that the general public are probably somewhat familiar with in one way or another.
