This book is a reflection of a growing awareness among philosophers
and psychologists of the inescapable entanglement of psychology
with its philosophical underpinnings. It deals with the dissection
of the assumptions that control contemporary inquiry into
psychological events, and it offers a preliminary examination of
the consequences for understanding behavior that different
assumptions provide. The broad scopeof topics provides a number of
bases from which to view problems and questions bearing on the
philosophy of science for psychology. Pronko examines how guiding
postulates determine the outcome of inquiry, raises new questions
and new possibilities regarding old problems, and stresses the
importance of seeing known facts in a new light and describing new
theories.
