G. Stanley Hall
G. Stanley Hall (1844-1924) was an influential American psychologist and educator, renowned for being the first to earn a Ph.D. in psychology in the United States from Harvard University. He is best known for his pioneering work in the study of adolescence, which he viewed as a distinct and critical phase of human development. Hall's ideas, developed in the early 20th century, posited that adolescents were not fully evolved humans but rather were experiencing a regression to primitive stages of human development. His seminal work, 'Adolescence,' outlined his views on the psychological turmoil of teenagers and the importance of a structured educational environment to guide them through this tumultuous period. Hall's contributions laid the groundwork for modern developmental psychology and shifted perceptions of adolescence from a time of mere transition to one of profound psychological growth.
