In the first
part of this work we focused on the main protagonists of the behaviorist
movement (until the 1950s) in order to highlight its most significant aspects. In the second part of this work,
however, we will focus on the early methodological models prompted by the main
scholars of behavioral science: this development should not be seen as a linear
one, since the pedagogical-didactic research has contributed in perfecting its
structure despite its weaknesses, especially in Italy, on the
empirical-experimental side.
