Explanation:
Cognitive psychology received support from the scientific community since the 1950s.
By 1960, George Miller and Jerome Bruner established the Center for Cognitive Studies at Harvard.
The behaviorist approach had lost interest, and better experimental methods were being developed. Furthermore, human and computer processing of information began to be compared.
In this context, the focus in psychology turned to the understanding of human information processing, applying stringent investigation methods.
