Psychology's Third Wave

Abstract

The development of epistemological paradigm of psychology could be divided in three stages which reflect the cultural state of society's development. Psychological understanding has drawn its primary view and has constituted its fundamental laws mirroring natural, social and cultural reality successively. This evolution is consistent with the humanistic course of Maslow's pyramid, which corresponds to human being tri-unitary humanistic constitution: nature, society and culture. We can call this the “humanistic development of epistemological paradigm of psychology”. The time for the last scientific “revolution” toward final form of psychology is coming. Are the psychologists and public prepared for this?
