Process or Person approach?

Which approach to human behaviour is more relevant to current professional practice: or ? Since the mid-19th century, two contrasting approaches to understanding
the mind an behaviour have been a topic of discussion: the scientific, or approaches,
and introspective, or approach. The debate is important because it affects reaserch methods and professional practice and, in the long term,
commercial, medical and social progress. A review of these approaches will allow us to reach our own conclusions.
The process approach to psychology focus on the analysis of the internal mental mechanisms which, scientists claim,can only be accessed through observable behaviour.
This view is largely supported by psychologists and behaviourists. The process approach is founded on Pavlov’s well-known research into stimulus and response, and supported by
Watson when he formulated the principles of behaviourism in 1913 (Gross, 2007). These include: complete scientific objectivity; the ipredictablity and controllability of behaviour; and
similarities between human and animal behaviour. It has been argued,however, that this last principle fails to take into account the existence of consciousness or self-awareness in
humans. Countering this criticism, Watson maintained that introspection was objective, unreliable as a data source and, therefore, unscientific.
In the late 19th century, John Dewey highlighted another limitation of the stimulus-response theory (Benjafied, 1996). Dewey pointed out that, depending on their
situation, human beings will respond differently to similar stimulus, unlike animals, which have a limited range of responses. For example, if we are see a child crying and alone in public, we
will probably assume that he or she is lost, and look for its mother. On the other hand, when we see a child crying and with its mother, we do nothing. Our responses are determined not
only by the stimulus, but also by social context. By relating behaviour to social context, Dewel foreshadowed social-constructivist theory which form part of the person approach.
The person approach emphasized the importance of individual experience as a means of understanding mental process, and of the effect of social interaction on
behaviour. This
approach is supported by the psychodynamic, humanist and social-constructivist theories. For instance, Freud claimed that dreams were the gateway to our unconscious and that relating and
interpreting them was a valid means of understanding our inner life. According to the humanist, Carl Rogers, self-awareness is at the centre of the human experience and each
individual’s unique interpretation of reality is valid. Social constructivism looks beyond individual experience and explains behaviour as a fluid interaction between the person and a
continuously changing society. The main argument against the validity of all theories supporting the person approach is that any data based on reported experience is necessarily
subjective and, therefore, unverifiable.
An examination of two cases will illustrate the relevance of each approach in practice. In the first case, a forensic psychologist planning a programme of rehabilitation for
prisoner may use techniques which include a scientifically standardized psychometric test, developed according to the process approach, and just as important, a direct interview - a
technique belonging to the person approach. In another case, a biopsychologist taking the process approach to testing the effect of narcotics on behaviour may limit his or her
observations to laboratory animals. However, during subsequent testing on humans, the researcher may take the person approach and obtain valuable additional information from individual
feedback.
In conclusion, whilst the approach is scientifically valid, the approach provides
a wealth of information not available from objective observation. Each of these approaches provides researchers and practitioners with data and techniques which are applicable not
only in experimental contexts but also in the field.

observable behaviour, whereas the person approach emphasized the importance of individual experience as a means of understanding mental process,
and of the effec of social interaction on behaviour.

The process approach accessible with observable behavior whereas the person approach emphasizes the importance of individual experience as a
means of understanding mental processes.
4. What is the process approach to psychology
The process approach to psychology focus on the analysis of the internal mental mechanisms which, scientists claim,can only be accessed through
observable behaviour.
5. What did Dewey point about the response of human beings ?
Dewey pointed out that, depending on their situation, human beings will respond differently to similar stimulus, unlike animals, which have a limited
range of responses
6. What is the person approach determined?

Our responses are determined not only by the stimulus, but also by social context
7. Why are both of the process approach and person approach become a topic of discussion for debating?
important because it affects reaserch methods and professional practice and, in the long term, commercial, medical and social progress
8. What does a forensic psychologist plan?
a forensic psychologist planning a programme of rehabilitation for prisoner may use techniques which include a scientifically standardized
psychometric test, developed according to the process approach, and just as important, a direct interview - a technique belonging to the person approach
9. Why did the researcher take the person approach?
the researcher may take the person approach and obtain valuable additional information from individual feedback
