Scientific psychology is a branch of psychology that is based on scientific and experimental research and tries to examine human behaviors and mental processes in a systematic and accurate way. Unlike non-scientific or philosophical approaches to mind and behavior, scientific psychology uses empirical and data-driven methods to investigate, test, and evaluate hypotheses.
The main stages of scientific psychology are:
- Observation: In scientific psychology, researchers start by carefully observing human or animal behavior. These observations can include overt behaviors (such as physical movements) or mental phenomena (such as feelings or thoughts).
- Hypothesis: Based on observations, researchers make hypotheses that can be tested. The hypothesis must be such that it can be rejected or confirmed using empirical data.
- Hypothesis testing: This step involves running experiments or collecting data to test the hypotheses. Here, psychologists use various methods, such as experimental tests, surveys, or longitudinal studies.
- Data analysis: After collecting data, researchers use statistical methods to analyze it to determine whether the data support the initial hypotheses.
- Conclusion and Dissemination: After analyzing the data, researchers They publish their conclusions in scientific articles to share the results with the scientific community.
Scientific psychology is divided into several subfields, including:
Experimental psychology: The scientific study of behavior and mental processes using experiments and experimental methods.
Cognitive psychology: The study of mental processes such as memory, perception, language, and thinking.
Clinical psychology: The use of scientific principles to diagnose and Treatment of mental problems. Developmental psychology: the study of behavioral and mental changes throughout life. Social psychology: the study of human social behavior and interpersonal interactions.
