What's Behind the Research?: Discovering Hidden Assumptions in the Behavioral Sciences Book
Critical thinking is encouraged in students by this volume, which both explores the main assumptions upon which behavioural science theories are based and offers some alternatives to these assumptions. The text begins with a review and critique of the major theoretical approaches: psychoanalysis, behaviorism, humanism, cognitivism, eclecticism, structuralism and postmodernism. The authors then discuss the key assumptions underlying these theories - knowing, determinism, reductionism and science. They both trace the intellectual history of these assumptions and offer contrasting options. The book concludes by examining ways of coming to terms with some of the inadequacies in the assumptions of the behavioral sciences.Read More
