The nature of descriptive psychology
The original impulse for the creation of DP was dissatisfaction with mainstream approaches to the science of psychology,[1] thinking that psychology had paid insufficient attention to the creation of a foundational conceptual framework such as other sciences possessed. Later authors noted that this lack of a conceptual scaffolding was responsible for the fragmentation of psychology; i.e. for its lack of any unifying, broadly accepted "standard model."[10]
