The need for a paradigm shift in psychology
Adam Monfsterioni advocates for a paradigm shift in psychology, suggesting that the field has been stuck in a proto-paradigm, not making significant progress in the past 30 years. He emphasizes the importance of turning psychology into a paradigmatic science, similar to how the periodic table organized chemistry or the shift from Aristotelian physics to modern physics. Adam argues that the intense competition for resources and the optimization for normal science hinder the potential for revolutionary and groundbreaking advancements in psychological research.
