sir frederic charles bartlett frs -lrb- 20 october 1886 -- 30 september 1969 -rrb- was a british psychologist and the first professor of experimental psychology at the university of cambridge .
he was one of the forerunners of cognitive psychology .
bartlett considered most of his own work on cognitive psychology to be a study in social psychology , but he was also interested in anthropology , moral science , philosophy , and sociology .
bartlett proudly referred to himself as `` a cambridge psychologist '' because while he was at the university of cambridge , settling for one type of psychology was not an option .
