Philosophical Origins of Natural Science In this project we engage in the phenomenological exploration of the remnants of the influence of the use of the natural science model in psychology. We believe that the philosophical origins of the natural science trend in contemporary psychology rest upon too narrow a conception of phenomenology. Contemporary psychology completely excludes an ethical foundation, and we believe that the theoretical insights of Emmanuel Levinas can be used to fill this lacuna. We also believe that, in the main, western psychology distorts the nature of the self. It is this distortion--in which consciousness is viewed as a thing--that precludes an ethical foundation and an adequate phenomenology. Join EPIS today and become apart of this research! Click here.
