Margaret Floy Washburn , leading American psychologist in the early 20th century, was best known for her experimental work in animal behavior and motor theory development. She was the first woman to be granted a PhD in psychology , and the second woman, after Mary Whiton Calkins, to serve as an APA President .

Gibson, David Rumelhart, Louis Leon Thurstone, and Robert S. Woodworth.
