Development of DiSC

In the early days of psychology, most researchers were interested in exploring deviant behavior, so their work focused on people at the margins of society: criminals, the mentally ill, etc. During the 1920s, an influential psychologist named William Marston wanted to study "normal" people. In his 1928 treatise, The Emotions of Normal People, Marston developed the DiSC methodology in order to quantify and analyze people's emotional behavior and responses.
