The broad aim of the course is to show how our understanding of psychology can be aided by recent developments in related disciplines such as philosophy, history, sociology and politics. The course is delivered in four separate but related modules covering the history and philosophy of science and how this applies to psychology; European and Critical Social Psychology; contemporary methodological approaches and methodological issues in psychology; and the application of these topics to psychological practice. The critical component of the course looks at psychology as a complex human enterprise that is concerned with the production, dissemination, and application of psychological knowledge claims. |
