Frenologi

Frenologi (dari bahasa Yunani: φρήν, phrēn, "pikiran"; dan λόγος, logos, "pengetahuan") adalah ilmu semu yang berupaya mempelajari hubungan antara karakter seseorang dengan tengkorak manusia. Bidang ini didasarkan pada konsep bahwa otak adalah organ pikiran, dan beberapa wilayah otak terdiri dari fungsi-fungsi yang terlokalisasi.Fodor, Jerry A. (1983). Modularity of Mind: An Essay on Faculty Psychology. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press. ISBN 0-262-56025-9 hal.14, 23, 131 Frenologi dikembangkan oleh dokter Jerman Franz Joseph Gall pada tahun 1796,Graham, Patrick. (2001) Phrenology [videorecording (DVD)]: revealing the mysteries of the mind . Richmond Hill, Ont.: American Home Treasures. ISBN 0-7792-5135-0 dan sangat populer pada abad ke-19, terutama dari tahun 1810 hingga 1840. Namun, kini frenologi sudah tidak akurat dan dianggap sebagai neuroanatomi primitif. Meskipun begitu, pemikiran frenologis telah memengaruhi psikiatri pada abad ke-19 dan neurosains modern. Asumsi Gall bahwa karakter, pemikiran, dan emosi terlokalisasi di beberapa bagian otak juga dianggap sebagai langkah menuju neuropsikologi.Fodor, JA. (1983) The Modularity of Mind.
