The dynamics of consumer behavior: A goal systemic perspective (2012, background): “Although the dynamic nature of motivation has been addressed in the past (Atkinson & Birch, 1970; Lewin, 1935), its treatment was mainly theoretical with limited empirical investigation of the specific conditions for the appearance and disappearance of given motivational states.”
Students’ well-being, coping, academic success, and school climate (2007, methodology): “The methodology of the study originates in the ecological approach, which is mainly influenced in the psychological literature by Lewin (cf.

Personal meaning: A challenge for psychology (2013, background): “…term, having in mind its linking to some broader contexts: Freud (1917/1953) to explain the roots of dreams, cognitive and behavioral lapses; Lewin (1935) to propose the educational strategy of developing the intrinsic interest; Ross and Nisbett (1991) to refer to individual variations in…”
Goal conflict and psychological well-being: A meta-analysis (2017, background): “Despite their theoretical differences, Maslow (1954, 1943), Lewin (1935), Hull (1938), and Freud (1962) all implicate goal conflict as having negative psychological implications.”
Potential Originality and Effectiveness: The Dynamic Definition of Creativity (2016, background): “Indeed, a novel outcome represents a force, an impulse in a dynamic relationship in Lewinian terms (Lewin, 1935) between the creator and the judge, whose ability in assessing the outcome depends on his or her ability to engage in a meta-creative exercise.”
The Origins of Lewin’s Three-Step Model of Change (2020, methodology): “…considered the “intellectual father” of organizational change (Schein, 1988, p. 239), for most of his professional life, Lewin was best known as a renowned child psychologist and the creator of field theory (Cartwright, 1952a, 1952b; Lewin, 1935, 1936a; Lippitt, 1947; Marrow, 1969; Wheeler, 2008).”
