Unity in Psychology: The Search Starts Here

When I started my first psychology course I couldn't understand the separation between the different subjects, or disciplines, in psychology. Developmental psychologists aren't that much different from cognitive psychologists - they both study mental events and processes - but one almost never refers to the other. Why?

My first impression was that psychology's disciplines were simply an historical accident, whose momentum had not yet dissipated. But a series of articles I discovered on unity in psychology began to open my eyes to myriad discussion about unity in psychology.

Follow the search from the start:

• Unifying Psychology
• Unity: Gregg Henriques
• Unity: Psychology Defined
• Unity's Enemy: Complacency
• Unity: Disorganisation in Psychology
• Unity: The Cognitive Revolution Unifies
• Unity: Fuzzy Terminology

• Unity: A Noble Quest
• Unity: Avoiding Critical Reflection?
