  Toward Unity in Psychology: The Experimental Synthesis of Behaviour
 
 
Title: Toward Unity in Psychology: The Experimental Synthesis of Behaviour
Author: Ardila, Ruben
Appeared in: International journal of psychology
Paging: Volume 27 (1992) nr. 5 pages 299-310
Year: 1992-10-01
Contents: The current state of fragmentation of psychology is discussed in the context of Kuhn's paradigms. Schools of psychology are considered analogous to paradigms, although Kuhn would not think of psychology as a paradigmatic science. Schools gave origin to systems of psychology (neo-behaviourism, neo-psychoanalysis, dialecticmaterialistic psychology, and humanistic psychology). A unifying paradigm, the experimental synthesis of behaviour, is presented as a programme. It is derived from the experimental analysis of behaviour. It is not an eclectic approach, but a new paradigm with the aim of undying psychology as a science. Its main characteristics and advantages are discussed.
