Cross-disciplinary verification of theories: the case of the triarchic theory
1Department of Psychology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06520, USA.
Abstract:
There are at least 4 good reasons to study the history of psychology. First, we can give credit to those who deserve it. Second, historical views can provide converging operations that help demonstrate the validity of our own views (or rather, operations that invalidate our views). Third, we learn that other natural and social sciences can inform our views. Fourth, we learn that philosophical and psychological analyses often converge. I show how historical views can inform current thinking about intelligence.
