Psychology

Carl Friedrich Graumann

pp. 3-18

Abstract

"Humanistic psychology" has become a label for a movement of which some of us do not yet know whether it is going to become part and parcel of, or a secession from, mainstream psychology. That is, we do not know whether it is going to enrich psychology by making up for some ignored and repressed topics of research or whether it is a coun-tercurrent, incompatible with so-called established academic psychology. What we do know in the second decade of "humanistic psychology" is that after a largely programmatic initial phase it has established itself. The indicators of this are a journal of its own, an association of its own, a recorded history of its own (Misiak & Sexton, 1973), and (as a social psychologist I have to add) a subculture of its own.
