- Science Debate & Ethnocentrism
- -Unrepresentive of how all humans behaves. Focus on western culture sample. .
- Bad others (Chinese/African) impied to the same but its untested.
- Findings not useful to everyday life in non western cultures
- Bad others (Chinese/African) impied to the same but its untested.
- Can be used to improve peoples behaviour in the specific culture. Useful to everyday life for Western cultures
- Unified assumption
- Changes when more info is avialable to make it more accurate
- Valid & reliable measurement methods
- Knowledge objective fact til evidence collected scientifically disproves it
- Reilability
- Valid & reliable measurement methods
- Valid & reliable measurement methods
- Study findings to be the sameif everything replicated exactly.
- Reilability
- Reilability
- Falsifiable:
- Can be proven worng
- Karl Popper should be falsifiable as well as give evidence for assumption.
- Can be proven worng
- Psyc science?
- Kuhn: psyc pre-science
- Psyc science?
- Psyc science?
- Methods not using exp used
- No
- Not all methods controlled
- Some ask for opinions
- Not everything is completely controlled
- No
- Focus on one specific ethnicity
- Research & theories on Western sociesties
- Not a unified assumption that all researchers agree on. Focus on their approach not assumptions of other equally valid approaches.
- No
- Not all methods controlled
- Some ask for opinions
- Not everything is completely controlled
- No
- Significant amount of research use scientific method to measure behaviour
- E.g. experiments, controlled obs
- Significant amount of research use scientific method to measure behaviour
- Assumptions need to have specific hypothesis, reliable method and findings can be falsifiable.
- Hypothesis: clear what is causing the measured behaviour so variable affecting it can be removed. No hypothesis = inaccurate measure of study.

- most ethnocentric research assumes non-western people behave the same as western people
- Evidence of human behaviour can't disprove theory all behave the same. Study is not nothometic (no measurement of humans other cultures)
- most ethnocentric research assumes non-western people behave the same as western people
- most ethnocentric research assumes non-western people behave the same as western people
- Promoting cultural racism: western cultures superior to non-western, at best the ethnocentric approach means psych ungeneralizable to every human being
- Ethnocentric approach psych takes unreflective of non-western cultures

- if psych does research in west societies is research generalizable to different cultural societies?
