The reason why so less women were involved in the founding of psychology were because initially women experiences and founding were not documented. They were not taken seriously. Their experiences were not considered pivotal to the role of psychology.

Explanation:

Phycology is the study and behaviors of human brain. The mind is complex structure and one has to be very careful while handling it.

Women previously were not considered smart enough to be able to participate in any scientific research. Women had to use a fake name or a mans name in order to get their work the recognition and some attention from its fellow scientists.
