Watson disagreed with Freud's emphasis on unconscious processes and the importance of early childhood experiences in shaping personality.

Watson's approach was more focused on environmental factors influencing behavior, while Freud's psychoanalytic theory emphasized inner conflicts and unconscious desires.
