Alfred kinsey contribution to psychology

Alfred Kinsey

Alfred Charles Kinsey was a biologist, professor, and sexologist best known for his research on human sexuality. His work, culminating in the enormously influential Kinsey Reports and the Kinsey scale, transformed public perceptions about sex and sexuality, and paved the way for future generations of sex researchers.

Dr. Kinsey arrived at Indiana University in 1920 — a year after earning his Ph.D. in biology from Harvard University. For the next 20 years, Kinsey studied gall wasps, specializing in taxonomy and individual variation. In 1938, he began teaching "Marriage and Family", a course for senior and married IU students.

He soon realized that there was a severe lack of data about human sex and sexuality, especially when compared to how much his students knew about animal mating. Kinsey began to research human sexuality and collect sexual histories. On April 8, 1947, Kinsey and the research staff incorporated as the Institute for Sex Research (ISR).

A year later, Kinsey published his first book, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948), an amalgamation o

Education and Early Career

Alfred Charles Kinsey was born in Hoboken, New Jersey, June 23, 1894. He attended Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Maine (1914-1916), graduating magna cum laude with a B.S. in biology and psychology. He received his Sc.D. in biology from Harvard University in September 1919.

Dr. Kinsey arrived at Indiana University in 1920 as an assistant professor of zoology. For the next 20 years, Kinsey studied gall wasps, and established a solid academic reputation for his biology tests and his research in taxonomy and evolution. By 1937, American Men of Science listed him as one of their "starred" scientists. 

During his work on gall wasps, Dr. Kinsey developed many of the techniques around recording and organizing data that would come into play in his later research into hum
