MARCELLOS, Cíntia Fernandes  e  ARAUJO, Saulo de Freitas. The Question of Consciousness in Wilhelm Wundt’s Psychology. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.11, n.1, pp.311-332. ISSN 1808-4281.

This paper explores Wilhelm Wundt's concept of consciousness in its definitive formulation. It is supported by the definition of psychology as the science of immediate experience, which can only be indirectly accessed through experimental method and observation. Consciousness, conceived as a processual flux whose occurrence delimits the totality of mind, is the primary subject matter of psychology, and it is studied in its representational, affective and volitive aspects. The constitutive elements of consciousness, their composite forms and the organizing laws of such associations are also presented. Finally, the relevance of Wundt's psychological formulation as example of a attempt of the establishment of psychology as an autonomous discipline is discussed.

Palavras-chave : Consciousness; Wilhelm Wundt; History of Psychology.
