Alfred Binet(1857-1911)

Alfred Binet, (born July 8, 1857, Nice, France—died October 18, 1911, Paris), French
psychologist who played a dominant role in the development of experimental
psychology in France and who made fundamental contributions to
the measurement of intelligence.
Alfred Binet develops psychodiagnostic tests for the measurement of intelligence
A French scientist founded the first psychology laboratory in France,in 1855.Binet was
interested in developing tests to investigate mental abilities in children. In 1904, a french
commission invited Binet and Theodore Simon, to develop a method to assist in providing
mentally disabled children with appropriate educational services. Binet and Simon developed an
intelligence test.

Binet professional life:

Binet met Charles Fere in 1883 and was mentored by Jean Charcot. He acted as a researcher
for Charcot in a neurological clinic and learned about hypnotism from him. However, when
research into hypnotism did not hold up under academic and public scrutiny, he moved away
from the discipline.
Binet redirected his focus toward cognitive development after the birth of his two daughters.
While closely studying their development, Binet conducted research and assessments in
developmental, social, experimental, and differential psychology. He published hundreds of
books and articles, and his work on intelligence and mental processes influenced many
prominent psychiatrists and psychologists of the time, including Jean Piaget.
In 1891, Binet began working at the Laboratory of Experimental Psychology where he advanced
to director of the lab within a few years. He continued in that capacity until his death in 1911.

CONTRIBUTION TO PSYCHOLOGY:

In the early 1900s, Binet began working with Theodore Simon, his research assistant, to
address the needs of the Commission for the Retarded. Binet was tasked with finding a way to
distinguish children with cognitive impairments to ensure they received the educational services
they needed.
He worked with Simon to devise intelligence tests, the first of which was introduced in 1905,
known as the Binet-Simon Scale. The test went through several revisions and was republished
in 1908. The Binet-Simon Scale was designed to address the cognitive abilities of children
ranging in age from 3–13. The test consisted of 30 different questions or tasks of increasing
difficulty. The goal of the test was to assign a child a mental age based upon the average
performance of children at each age.
The fundamental purpose of the test was altered, molded, and redefined by H.H. Goddard and
Lewis Terman, the latter of Stanford. The finished product, the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale,
varies greatly in platform and purpose from the original Binet-Simon Scale. Rather than testing
for serious cognitive impairments, it was marketed as a generalized intelligence test, and
became an important part of the eugenics movement—a social movement designed to prevent
or decrease the reproduction of “undesirable” people, such as those with low intelligence.  
1907
Lightner Witmer

He introduced the term "clinical psychology" and is often credited with founding the field that it
describes. Witmer created the world's first "psychological clinic" at the University of
Pennsylvania in 1896, including the first journal of clinical psychology and the first clinical
hospital school in 1907.

The first psychologist to establish a practice properly called clinical psychology was Lightner
Witmer.The founder of clinical psychology, who with the creation of the first magazine on the
same subject released the first investigations that were being worked on in the discipline, also
gave life to the term "medicine psychosomatics, in a psychoanalytic context, which introduced
the perspective of functional disorders not explained by somatic diseases and attributed to this
way to psychic conflicts.
Lightner Witmer and the beginning of clinical psychology:

In 1908, Witmer published the first edition of The Psychological Clinic. The lead article, "Clinical
psychology," explained his work of the last 10 years and why the new term was needed.

Psychological Clinic at the entrance, ca. 1923.
It also illustrated Witmer's clinical method. It was to perform little experiments on his cases (the
term he used), in order to understand the nature of their difficulty. As Witmer understood more,
he would attempt educational experiments, evaluating their effectiveness over days or weeks.
He implicitly assumed that the correct educational approach was to "teach to weakness."
Although his method lent itself best to what we would today call "learning disabilities," articles in
The Psychological Clinic attempt to extend the approach to more traditional topic in psychiatry,
such as the nature of delusions.

The journal ceased publication in 1935, with a report on the status of clinical psychology in the
United States. It reviewed the work of 150 clinics, and it attempted to say something about how
psychologists should be educated.
