Abstract: Ştefan Odobleja was a Romanian doctor interested by the fundaments of the sciences. Unlike the fundamentalists from the beginning of the past century who based on Logics and Mathematics, he considered that logic itself is part of Psychology, as formal theory of thinking. As far as they suppose thinking processes, the fundaments of sciences must be psychological or logical-psychological. As fundamental sciences, neither Logics nor Psychology can be considered accordingly, like they were individually professed in the past. The logical-psychological fundamental discipline is based on a Psychology reduced at the study of the thinking processes and on logic, based on classic forms of thinking: concept, judgment etc, as psycho-logical acts. These can be applied at all the other sciences and specially should be shaped in mathematics: Geometry, Physics, Mechanics and Automatics. This way, we can obtain psychological-structural diagrams that can be applied in every science. In the case of automation and mechanization of logical-psychological processes it can obtain what he named as artificial thinking. These ideas were considered by specialists from the history of Cybernetics as a generalized cybernetic. This is the reason why Ştefan Odobleja was considered the precursor of Cybernetics and was chosen as post-mortem member of the Romanian Academy.
