Hi Hector,

  Thanks for this note. Actually, my intellectual path to the problem of psychology came via the problem of psychotherapy. Here are slides from a course I teach on Integrative Psychotherapy for Adults.

 

Best,
Gregg

Hi Gregg

Thank you for these wonderful materials.

I agree psychology is facing a big problem. 

I work as a psychotherapist since many years. And psychotherapy is also in a laberynth!!

The solution for this is just in a word: in-te-gra-tion.

The best way to theoretical integration I think is looking to the mind as the meeting point between behavior and experience (Klaus Grawe dixit)

Perhaps it works also for psychology.

Best, Héctor.

HI TOK List,

I completed my video series on the Problem of Psychology and Its Solution. It consists of the “long version,” which involves two parts. Part I is a two-hour overview of the Problem of Psychology, focusing on the history and the various paradigms (for the slide deck only of Part I, see here). Part II (slide deck only is here) is an hour and forty-minute description of how the Unified Theory solves the problem.

Of course, who has almost four hours to devote to this issue?

[From where I sit in the landscape of knowledge, I do encourage you to question that reaction. The reason is that the problem of psychology is diagnostic of the single most serious problem with Western (and especially Anglo-American) knowledge systems. It shows, with absolute certainty, that our system of thought does not know how to talk about mind, behavior, and science with coherence. That, folks, is truly remarkable. And what is even more remarkable is (a) how well documented this problem is; (b) and how no one seems to care about it. It just blows my mind. So, next time you find yourself mumbling about how it seems we are all confused, and nobody knows anything, then remember this post. The root of a huge amount of confusion is found in our inability to define science, mind, and behavior in the English language!]

Actually, I get that folks don’t have time for the deep dive. So, HERE is the shortened version; The Summary of the Problem and Its Solution. A focused 30 min romp through the issues. About the length of a sitcom 😊.

Best,
Gregg
