Why Is Rudolph Goclenius Influential?

According to Wikipedia, Rudolph Goclenius the Elder was a German scholastic philosopher. Gockel is often credited with coining the term "psychology" in 1590, though the term had been used by Marko Marulić at least 66 years earlier.

Several of Gockel's ideas were published and built upon by later philosophers.
