Abstract

The current dismay within the mainstream of nomological psychology may result from the fact that the anomaly of non-replicability has a direct bearing on its very own methodological requirements and quality criteria of empirical research. The call for more scientific rigour on the customary avenue in order to secure unambiguous empirical findings gives, however, rise to suspect that the deeper reason for this anomaly is not yet recognised: namely, the misguided regulation of a strictly objective inquiry, distorting what is present and relevant in everyday life and treating the ‘subjective’ of the subject matter as the central root of interfering factors which have to be eliminated or neutralised in the pursuit of experimental hypothesis testing. The problems of replicability would thus be a proof once again that the notorious inversion between matter and method does not really work, due to the uncircumventable characteristics of human inter-/subjectivity. In this sense, the replication crisis replicates the perennial topic of all historical discussions about a crisis in psychology – the failure of a ‘psychology without subject’.

复制危机——心理学中复制危机的又一个例子?历史回顾与理论心理评价
目前在法理学心理学主流内部的沮丧可能源于这样一个事实,即不可复制性的异常与其自身的方法要求和实证研究的质量标准直接相关。然而,为了确保明确的实证研究结果,人们呼吁在常规途径上采取更严格的科学方法,这让人怀疑,这种异常现象的更深层次原因尚未被认识到:也就是说,对严格客观调查的错误规范,扭曲了日常生活中存在的和相关的东西,并将主题的“主观”视为干扰因素的中心根源,这些因素必须在追求实验假设检验时被消除或中和。因此,可复制性的问题将再次证明,由于人类主体性不可避免的特征,物质与方法之间臭名昭著的反转并不真正起作用。从这个意义上说,复制危机复制了所有关于心理学危机的历史讨论的永恒主题——“没有主体的心理学”的失败。

期刊介绍: Review of General Psychology seeks to publish innovative theoretical, conceptual, or methodological articles that cross-cut the traditional subdisciplines of psychology. The journal contains articles that advance theory, evaluate and integrate research literatures, provide a new historical analysis, or discuss new methodological developments in psychology as a whole. Review of General Psychology is especially interested in articles that bridge gaps between subdisciplines in psychology as well as related fields or that focus on topics that transcend traditional subdisciplinary boundaries.
