In 1909, psychology sought to establish itself as a hard quantitative science, with the dominant model being Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis, which treated the mind as an isolated deterministic machine driven by biological urges and past trauma. However, a significant shift occurred through private discussions at Clark University, where Harvard philosopher William James, dissatisfied with strict materialism, engaged with Carl Jung, Freud's supposed heir, who was searching for an exit strategy from his mentor's rigid theories. These conversations, which did not focus on psychoanalytic theory, laid the groundwork for psychology's transformation from philosophical speculation to empirical science.
