Scientific Psychology [EPUB ebook] 

This book is divided into 14 chapters and is regarded by Maslow as a sequel to "Motivation and Personality". The main contents include the introduction of humanistic science, understanding of human nature, cognitive needs, growth science, prediction of human beings, empirical knowledge and observer knowledge, abstraction and theory, experience and abstraction, realism and abstractionism, control science, interpersonal relations, values, stages of knowledge, wonders of science, etc. Maslow pointed out that science itself is a value system, and human emotional needs, cognitive needs, expressive needs, and aesthetic needs give science its causes and goals. This book explores science from historical and psychological dimensions, and uses his theory of hierarchy of needs, self-actualization theory, peak experience theory, etc., as theoretical resources to provide psychological explanations for the role of empirical knowledge, observer knowledge, motivation, needs, etc., in scientific research. Maslow attempted to combine science and value to conduct scientific research. In foreign countries, scientific psychology has become a new research orientation after scientific sociology and scientific anthropology, and China’s psychology has also been inspired by it.
