How did Kohler and Tolman lay the foundation for the cognitive approach in psychology? ?

I thought that it was Pavlov.|||Pavolv was a behaviorist to the core. Kohler was Gestalt and studied problem solving way before the cognitive revolution. He was very interested in insight as well. Tolman studied rat learning but made the shocking claim (at least at the time) that the rats were forming cognitive maps.
