Where Ebbinghaus used nonsense symbols to uncover humans true abilities of association. While Pavlov discovered more accurately how reflexes work and classical condition. When combining both Ebbinghaus and Pavlov’s work we find the results of mind-body dualism. Mind-body dualism is composed of two components, one in which actions are voluntarily controlled by the mind, better known as mentalism. Second where actions are involuntarily controlled by the reflex mechanism, better known as reflexology. Ebbinghaus used mentalism by determining the body’s voluntary abilities to use association to remember nonsense symbols on a list. We know this is voluntary because we have the ability to think through and choose if Ebbinghaus wanted to learn those symbols. Whereas Pavlov used reflexology to show that over time new reflexes can be gained via association. Since we do not actively control or think about our reflexes before they occur, we just instinctively act upon them, this is considered
