本章讨论克里斯蒂安·沃尔夫的哲学与早期现代实验哲学家的方法论观点之间的关系。本章提出了三个主张。首先，沃尔夫的体系每一步都依赖于经验，他对实验、观察、假设和先验的看法与实验哲学家的观点一致。其次，对沃尔夫观点的研究论证了实验哲学对十八世纪初德国的影响。第三，对沃尔夫的经验主义和理性主义的引用最好被识别或替换为他对实验哲学家和数学论证方法的信条的认可。
This chapter discusses the relation between Christian Wolff's philosophy and the methodological views of early modern experimental philosophers. The chapter argues for three claims. First, Wolff's system relies on experience at every step and his views on experiments, observations, hypotheses, and the a priori are in line with those of experimental philosophers. Second, the study of Wolff's views demonstrates the influence of experimental philosophy in early eighteenth-century Germany. Third, references to Wolff's empiricism and rationalism are best identified or replaced with references to his endorsement of the tenets of experimental philosophers and of a mathematical demonstrative method.
