Thread: The Psychology Paradox

note: paradox applies applied psychology/psychiatry. psychology philosophy doesn't count.

psychiatry - study , treatment of mental illness, emotional disturbance, , abnormal behavior. [using psychology]

psychology - scientific study of human mind , functions, esp. affecting behavior in given context.

because of ton of misconceptions on psychopathy society every online dictionary seems believe person goes around doing evil, ill-willed deeds psychopaths merely people cannot feel emotions. cannot emphasize others. great @ mimicing emotions have none of own. psychologists go far majority of teenagers psychopaths grow out of older. so, psychopaths pretty driven logic.

scientific study/method - principles , empirical processes of discovery , demonstration considered characteristic of or necessary scientific investigation, involving observation of phenomena, formulation of hypothesis concerning phenomena, experimentation demonstrate truth or falseness of hypothesis, , conclusion validates or modifies hypothesis.

so, psychiatry attempts use scientific method (which based on logic , logic alone) fix mind. yet, 1 of things attempts fix psychopathy state people rely on logic alone. see irony in this?

shallow emotions more accurate opposed cannot feel emotions.
