I believe the numerous experiments that have been conducted probably give a very good understanding of psychology. Just knowing which one to pay attention to I guess. Probably animal ones such as those carried out by Elizabeth Gould for example.
We know that dreams exist in the mind and appear real to the observer, so from that we can recognize that our organs of perception merely contribute to our perception of the world but are not the source of our experience. What we perceive is not reality as it appears to our sense apparatus but instead a series of illusions and adaptations that affect our emotional and cognitive processes for our survival and reproduction.
That's a big one, but I don't know the name of it.

I thought highlighting the issue of negative male outcomes was at least something, maybe it is men of good conscience to find the holes in the rest of it. Jonathan haidt

I guess it's hard , they try to understand,theorise and help with incomplete information lots of complicated variations and overcomplications. Albert ellis is pretty good though. He doesn't talk like one but explains how to be rational in order to reduce suffering.

Psychology without Evolution or Neuroscience (Logic and Empiricism) is just Judaism.

Do you know of any robust psychological principles or axioms? I mean ones we take for granted such as associative learning, pavlovian respons .
