Psychology

Upotreba i zloupotreba psihologije

Hans Eysenck

The thread of thought that runs through all the chapters is already visible in the title. Each chapter discusses the application of psychological findings to social problems.

In some cases, the evidence for the existence of a certain degree of utility is so convincing that it would not be advisable to advise society to ignore that utility. In some cases, there is a sufficient number of cases on the basis of which it can be said that a certain method or technique is useless in its current form and should either be discarded or improved beyond recognition.
