He published "Man is the Object of Education" in 1868, which is not only of great significance in the development history of Russian educational psychology, but also an important work that can not be ignored in the study of the development history of educational psychology all over the world.
Later, Russian educator Kapterev published the book Educational Psychology on 1877. This is the earliest educational psychology book officially named after educational psychology. However, because it does not provide an independent subject content system, it does not mean that educational psychology has been established as an independent subject.
Thus, at the end of 19 and the beginning of the 20th century, there appeared the "experimental pedagogy movement" which advocated experimental research on children's mind and body. The advocates of "Experimental Pedagogy Movement" are German educators Moyman and Rai.
Their experimental research ideas of attaching importance to children's physical and mental development and improving educational methods have deeply touched many educators and psychologists in Europe and America. Under their advocacy, an experimental education movement was launched. This has greatly promoted the application of tests and experiments in educational psychology research and the development of children's body and mind.

His three laws of learning (the law of effect, the law of preparation and the law of practice) and the theory of individual difference became important topics in educational psychology around the 1920s.
Because Thorndike put the focus of educational psychology research on learning psychology, the educational psychology circle in China has always regarded learning psychology as the main object of educational psychology research for a long time.
This is the earliest educational psychology book officially named "Educational Psychology" that we know so far, which makes Thorndike the founder of this subject.
