- Cognitive psychology originated in the 1960s in a break from behaviorism, which held from the 1920s to 1950s that unobservable mental processes were outside the realm of empirical science.
- This break came as researchers in linguistics, cybernetics, and applied psychology used models of mental processing to explain human behavior.
