摘要：This is the first of two papers on blueprints for a history of
environmental psychology. Four stages are established: First
Environmental Psychology, American Transition, Architectural
Psychology and Environmental Psychology for Sustainability. In this
first paper, the origins of environmental psychology are traced
back to early XX century German authors, who were the first to
speak specifically of the discipline. The American transition period
covers the years when, although environmental psychology was
seldom mentioned, a considerable part of its theoretical
foundations was laid. The second paper will describe and justify
the period of Architectural Psychology. Its late 1970s crisis paved
the way for a twofold shift: social and "green" which would lead to a
new environmental psychology focused on sustainability.
