Perspectives in Psychology
Modern psychology is a not "unified" science, i.e., it doesn't offer one
theory or an integrated set of theories that explains human behavior.
Rather, students of psychology must learn to think "perspectivally;"
they must use several distinct theoretical perspectives as lenses to
"see" into human motivation. Check out the link below and find a brief
discussion of the major perspectives that govern the psychological
vision.
