Thus, theoretical changes diverge strikingly from operationalization changes: The only clear operationalization change, which took place in Hull’s monograph (1920), corresponds to a (probable) case of theoretical continuity, while the clear theoretical changes correspond to cases of operational continuity. What should we conclude from this discrepancy? A tentative conclusion is that experiments in the psychology of concepts in the twentieth century have not borne on the specific theoretical notions of concepts endorsed by functional psychologists, behaviorists and cognitive psychologists. To put it differently, these theoretical notions have not been endorsed for experimental reasons. Instead, they result from psychologists’ theoretical commitments. For instance, behaviorists . . . --3000,3,500,2396,57550
