Canada has a long history of excellence in scientific
psychology (e.g., Donald Hebb, who developed what is know known as the Hebbian
synapse; Brenda Milner, renowned for her research with amnesic patient HM;
Endul Tulving and Gus Craik, leaders in the science of memory; Lee Brooks
and Alan Paivio, famed for foundational research on imagery and memory).
According to a recent report, Canada ranks third in the world rankings of
highly cited papers in psychology and neuroscience (behind the USA and UK,
both of which have much larger populations). Canada has 49 universities
that include psychology and/or counselling departments. Below are
