Between roughly 1913 and 1965 a school of psychologists insisted that the proper subject of their science was not the mind but the body — specifically, what the body did and how reliably it could be made to do it again.
The discipline that takes mental suffering as its subject and tries, with limited tools, to relieve it.
Cognitive psychology is the experimental study of mental processes — perception, attention, memory, language, reasoning, decision-making — treated as steps in an information-handling system that can be measured in milliseconds and modelled in flowcharts.
The Mind Examining Itself
How a 270-day collection of cells becomes, over twenty years, a creature capable of doing calculus, falling in love, and lying about its taxes.
Take seriously that the brain, like every other organ, was built by natural selection. Then ask: what cognitive architecture would such a brain have, and how would we recognise its workings?
A field that exists because legal questions about credibility, competence, intent, and risk are also psychological questions — and because the courts, left to themselves, have been historically bad at answering them.
Memory is not a video recording. It is a reconstructive process that uses partial cues to assemble something that feels like a recording.
The clinical discipline that infers the architecture of the human mind from the patterns of damage that disrupt it.
The Science of Work and Human Behavior in Organizations
A working definition: stable patterns of thought, feeling, and behaviour that distinguish individuals and persist across time and situations.
A scientific programme to study what makes a life go well, distinct from but related to clinical psychology's older project of studying what makes a life go badly.
The discipline that asks: when we say someone "has high anxiety" or "an IQ of 120," what does that statement mean, and how would we know if we were wrong?
Social psychology is the experimental study of how people think, feel, and act in the actual or imagined presence of other people — conformity, obedience, attribution, prejudice, persuasion, the small alterations in behaviour caused by being watched.
A field that exists because, at the elite level, the physical gap between competitors closes — and the psychological gap is what remains.
