Popis: | Over the past few decades, we have witnessed the dynamic development of a new philosophical discipline, which has been calledthe philosophy of psychology. Although it is relatively new as a formal discipline, the subject matter with which it concerns itself has a much longer history. In the following paper I intend to sketch an outline of the history ofthe philosophy of psychology, the changes it has undergone, and to offer a few proposals to widen its horizon of study, to include those elements of psychology that, in my opinion, merit attention. With this goal in mind and based on appropriate examples, I will present four hypotheses regarding the beginnings of the philosophy of psychology, its present state and possible future. My aim is to arrive at a proposal for a more inclusive approach to the philosophy of psychology. |
