Stanley Hall]] ([[Clark University]]), who often published in his ''[[American Journal of Psychology]]''.

==History==
In the early years of the 20th century, Baldwin purchased Cattell's interest in the journal, but was forced to sell the journal to [[Howard Warren]] in 1908 when scandal forced him out of his professorship at [[Johns Hopkins University]] (where he had moved in 1903). Editorship of the journal fell to Baldwin's newly hired young colleague [[John B. Watson]], who used the journal to advance his school of [[behaviorism]]. ''Psychological Review'' was eventually sold by Warren to the [[American Psychological Association]], which has owned it ever since.
