C. Lloyd Morgan
Conwy Lloyd Morgan,
FRS (6 February 1852 – 6 March 1936) was a British
ethologist and
psychologist. He is remembered for his theory of
emergent evolution, and for the experimental approach to animal psychology now known as
Morgan's Canon, a principle that played a major role in
behaviourism, insisting that higher mental faculties should only be considered as explanations if lower faculties could not explain a behaviour.
