This theory was initially formed part of Behavioural Geography but fundamentally disagreed with the use of quantitative methods in assessing human behaviour and thoughts in favour of qualitative analysis.
Peter R. Gould was one of the geographers who criticized the individual approach of Human Geography. Gould addressed in the sentence below that the focus on human actions in this discipline was increasingly on individuals rather than on aggregates. At that time (1976) His question was a form of critique which points at the difficulty to analyse individuals. Geographers were mainly focus on groups of many people instead of individuals.
