Positivism needs further scrutiny. In recent years, there has been
little consensus about the nature of positivism or about the
precise forms its influence has taken on psychological theory. One
symptom of this lack of clarity has been that ostensibly
anti-positivist psychological theorizing is frequently found
reproducing one or more distinctively positivist assumptions. The
contributors to this volume believe that, while virtually every
theoretically engaged psychologist today openly rejects positivism
in both its 19th century and 20th century forms, it is
indispensable to look at positivism from all sides and to appraise
its role and importance in order to make possible the further
development of psychological theory.
