Munsterberg's discussion of spectators' mental functions is especially noteworthy, considering the fact that he had a widely recognised scholarly background as an experimental psychologist and consequently applied the most recent psychological research to his discussion on film.
Munsterberg's definition of film as art based on Kantian aesthetics excludes film from the practical sphere of life and this is undermined by his strong emphasis on the educational value of film (35, 115, 119-121).
Munsterberg had the formal education of an experimental psychologist in Germany, and later gained a reputation in America as a professor of psychology at Harvard and as one of the leading proponents of applied psychology.
