MENGINTEGRASIKAN PSIKOLOGI MELALUI PERUMUSAN KEMBALI DOMAIN OBYEK STUDI

Abstract

Psychology has been in the past and now is a fragmented science. One reason of the fragmentation is a disagreement about the subject matter
of psychology. This paper attempts to review in detail the state of the subject matter disagreement. Analogy from conceptual integration in natural sciences can be used to integrate psychology. The author proposes that psychology should focus on human psychology only. Animal ar nonhuman organisms should not be a domain of psychological study but a domain of other sciences such as
biology, zoology, entomology, wild life and animal sciences.
