I was wondering when Stevens would show up. There is also Charles Osgood's 
"Method and Theory in Experimental Psychology", published in 1953.

Oh! And let us not forget Stanley Stevens'  _Handbook of Experimental

I have Woodworth's book in my office. He talks about how lab research has 
exploded and states that he skips a few topics because they have been covered 
elsewhere (such as individual differences and correlations, social psychology, 
child development, abnormal, educational, and applied psych) and admits to very 
slim coverage of animal experiments in learning and problem solving. Even 
excluding all of that, his book comes in at 880 pages. His chapters are mostly 
on S&P, but also memory, learning, cognition, and emotions. I was under the 
impression (looking at other, older, text and talking to someone who had taught 
the course for many years before retiring) that Sensation and Perception was 
often covered in experimental.

I was wondering if anyone knew of any articles or writings on the
history of teaching of experimental psychology, particularly as a
laboratory course, over the course of the past century.  I'm
interested in what was covered is such courses, the target enrollment
size, and the "mission" of such courses.  Any help would be
appreciated. TIA.
