心理学缺失的要素

Psychology's replication and generalizability shortcomings suggest that, although valuable, statistical and incentive reforms have not stabilized core constructs. I argue that residual implicit dualism, characterized by the acceptance of loosely defined constructs supported by metaphors and weakly connected to biologically specific mechanisms, contributes to this instability. I propose the Materialist Model of Psychological Science (MMPS): a pluralism-friendly framework based on four axioms (physical realization, multi-level constraint, evolutionary plausibility and mechanistic falsifiability)
