Erik Erikson (1902-1994) was born in Frankfurt, Germany and studied Psychology under Anna Freud (Sigmund Freud's daughter) at the Vienna Psychoanalytic Institute. He moved to the United States and became a U.S. citizen in 1939 where he taught at several major universities including Harvard, Yale, and the University of California at Berkley.
Erik Homburger Erikson was born in 1902 at Germany and died in 1994 at Harwich, Massachusetts. He was educated at Vienna Psychoanalytic Institute. His most famous achievements:
Ernst Mach (1838 - 1916) observed that some mental experiences are the same even though they are stimulated by a wide range of sensory events. Example is the experiencing of geometric forms/space forms and melodies or time forms. Mach proposed a brand of positivism based on the phenomenological experiences of scientists. Because scientists, or anyone else, never experience the physical world directly, the scientist's job is to precisely describe the relationships among mental phenomena, and to do so without the aid of metaphysical speculation.
