California Institute for Human Science

Description

Master of Arts in General Psychology The Master’s program is first of all dedicated to examining the philosophical and methodological foundations of psychology as a knowledge discipline. The perennial tension between psychology conceived as a realm of measurement, quantification, experimentation and statistical analysis vs. psychology conceived as a realm of meaning, discourse, observation, and interpretation is addressed in detail. The goal is to expose rather than to mask the philosophical and methodological issues which psychology has struggled with for more than a century.
