Examining the Psychological Foundations of Science and Morality is
a progressive text that explores the relationship between
psychology, science and morality, to address fundamental questions
about the foundations of psychological research and its relevance
for the development of these disciplines. Supported by original
empirical evidence, the book analyses the relationship of folk
psychology to rational knowledge, outlining an original theory that
connects psychology and natural sciences through the mind which
creates a psychological foundation for scientific knowledge and
morality. It argues that science and religion have a common
psychological core of subjective experience, which diversifies into
knowledge, beliefs and morality. The book considers how subjective
space and time are converted into physical space and time, and how
subjective 'sense of causation' is shaped into physical causality
and human communication. Further, it explores the mind as a complex
system of contrasting realities, with the main function being
existence attribution (EXON). The chapters delve into a range of
topics including theoretical analysis of consciousness, the
internal self, unexplainable phenomena, analysis of empirical
research into causality, morality and the mind. The book will be of
great interest to postgraduate and upper-level undergraduate
students studying foundations of psychology, consciousness,
philosophy of science, morality, as well as professionals who deal
with influence on mass consciousness or are interested in the link
between human psychology, scientific knowledge and morality.
