Why were so few women involved in the founding of psychology ?

Afina-wow [57]

There were few women involved in the founding of psychology because women haven’t been taken seriously in the workforce. Psychology was found in the 1980s, where women employment was not common.

EXPLANATION

Psychology was found in the 1980s, by a German psychologist called Wilhelm Wundt. To this day, Wundt is known as the Father of Psychology. In the 1980s, women have not taken seriously in the workforce. Women were expected to either be a mother, a housekeeper, or a worker. A woman was not perceived as a leader, even more, a founder. If a woman at that time wanted to be a founder, she might have been ostracized by the people around her.

There might have been a few women making theories like Freud in those days, but the only way that their voice could be heard was to get a job as someone’s assistant, and their boss could claim their ideas. Women in that day and age were not encouraged to pursue a professional career and obtained a high degree in education.

Women were able to work in the workforce and getting paid equally as men only after the year 1920. This practice has been normalized for a couple of years, and finally, in the early 1960s, it was approved by law. British civil service announced that there has been a law that stated women must be paid equally as men.

write a essay about How was life similar and/or different for American women before, during, and after the war? Did the war chan

Elanso [62]

Answer:

The war greatly changed the role of women in the American society before, during, and after the war. Before the war, women were manly house wives that stayed home and took care of the house. When the men left to go fight, the men left their jobs and there was no income for the house so the women had to go find jobs. This would of been very hard for that family's that had children. During the war, our army required more people to come and help fight and women were very available to come and help. They manly took over the baking and cooking duties but some were put into the Airforce and into the medical field. A lot were put into the industrial part of America to make weapons and supplies that would go into the war. After the war, America noticed that women are very valuable and useful and we started to allow them to do more stuff. But we still have some problems with woman's rights.

**MARKING BRAINLIEST**

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Louisiana Purchase was the acquisition of the territory of Louisiana by the United States from France in 1803. In return for fifteen million dollars, or approximately eighteen dollars per square mile, the United States nominally acquired a total of 828,000 sq mi. However, France only controlled a small fraction of this area, most of it inhabited by American Indians; for the majority of the area, what the United States bought was the "preemptive" right to obtain Indian lands by treaty or by conquest, to the exclusion of other colonial powers. The total cost of all subsequent treaties and financial settlements over the land has been estimated to be around 2.6 billion dollars.

By its terms the Louisiana Territory, in the form France had received it from Spain, was sold to the United States. For this vast domain the United States agreed to pay $11,250,000 outright and assumed claims of its citizens against France in the amount of $3,750,000.
