In 1906, Dr. med. Georg Friedrich Nicolai, a young specialist in the field of electrocardiography from the university of Berlin, spent some months in the laboratory of Pavlov, where he was one of the first German visitors. Two letters written by Nicolai to Pavlov are a mirror of Nicolai's admiration for the brilliant Russian Nobel prize winner, but also of Nicolai's remarkable insight into the perspectives of Pavlov's physiological method for "objective" psychological investigations. Nicolai regarded himself a pupil of Pavlov until his death in South America, where he was forced to emigrate after World War I due to his pacifist activities.
1906年，柏林大学年轻的心电图领域专家格奥尔格·弗里德里希·尼古拉医生在巴甫洛夫的实验室待了几个月，他是最早一批到访的德国访客之一。尼古拉写给巴甫洛夫的两封信，既反映出尼古拉对这位杰出的俄罗斯诺贝尔奖得主的钦佩，也体现了他对巴甫洛夫用于“客观”心理研究的生理学方法的卓越见解。直到一战后因和平主义活动被迫移民到南美洲并在那里去世，尼古拉一直视自己为巴甫洛夫的学生。
