Isaac Woodbridge Riley (May 20, 1869 - September 2, 1933) was an American academic scholar who worked in and across the areas of Philosophy, Religion, and Psychology.
His published work often combined two of these disciplines in considering the historical development of a social movement or entity (such as a 'church'), particularly examining the influence of the founders' psychological character.
His books concerning the foundation and moral standing of Mormonism and Christian Science made him a focus of controversy.
Most of his career was spent as a professor of Philosophy at Vassar College.
