January 1880 CE
Several of Wilhelm Wundt’s students become eminent psychologists in their own right from 1880 on, including two who will become philosophers (Ljubomir Nedić and Branislav Petronijević).
They include: the Germans Oswald Külpe (a professor at the University of Würzburg), Ottmar Dittrich (who will continue Wundt's work in psycholinguistics by heading the group on phonetics and psychology of language at the University of Leipzig); the Americans James McKeen Cattell (the first professor of psychology in the United States), G. Stanley Hall (the father of the child psychology movement and adolescent developmental theorist, head of Clark University), Charles Hubbard Judd (Director of the School of Education at the University of Chicago), Hugo Münsterberg, Walter Dill Scott (who will contribute to the development of industrial psychology and teach at Harvard University), Edward Bradford Titchener, Lightner Witmer (founder of the first psychological clinic in his country); the Englishman Charles Spearman (who will develop the two-factor theory of intelligence and several important statistical analyses, incuding Spearman's rank correlation coefficient); and the Romanian Constantin Rădulescu-Motru (Personalist philosopher and head of the Philosophy department at the University of Bucharest).
