In fact, psychologists have published major reviews of catalogues six times between 1938 and 1997. In the earliest study of the catalogues of 157 liberal arts colleges, Henry (1938) reported that methodology was a highly-specialized course intended for graduate students, but sometimes enrolled undergraduates. Henry also reported that 27 per cent of the institutions offered at least one laboratory course in advanced experimental psychology for undergraduates. Sanford and Fleishman (1950), who studied a larger and more diverse sample of 330 institutions of higher learning, revealed Historical Trends in Teaching Research Methods 25 that 45 per cent of the institutions taught a statistics course and 57 per cent taught an experimental psychology course.

1952, 27). 28 Teaching Research Methods in the Social Sciences Clearly, the main concern here was to champion curricular change in the experimental psychology course. The same concern also set the stage for a new genre of courses and textbooks. The Michigan Conference in 1960 produced the McKeachie and Milholland Report (1961). The committee identified and discussed various weaknesses in the undergraduate curricula. In fact, the committee specifically addressed the dissatisfaction of many psychologists with the traditional course in experimental psychology.

Both the PsycINFO abstract and the preface for the 1960 textbook echo this sentiment. In his preface, McGuigan states: the present trend is to define experimental psychology not in terms of specific content areas, but rather as a study of scientific methodology generally, and of the methods of experimentation in particular. There is considerable evidence that this trend is gaining ground rapidly. This book has been written to meet this trend (McGuigan, 1960, iii). ). In addition, we examined the prefaces and tables of contents for other textbooks first published from the late 1940s to the late 1960s.
