Explain how Philosophy and Science contributed to the development of Psychology

as a discipline?

Psychology is the science that proposes to study the behavior and mental functions of the human being. This study is done through scientific research that, when finalized, propose results that are effective for treatments in human beings and psychological counseling for those in need.

Due to the need for research, within psychology, it became a discipline and this was only possible due to the contribution of science and philosophy.

Philosophy created the scientific method, which allows natural phenomena to be analyzed, discussed and investigated. With this, we can affirm that the existence of psychological problems, behavioral factors and even biological questions of the brain, developed the need to be discussed and analyzed, through the scientific method and all the philosophy that is involved in this.

In addition, these discussions and analysis, need to be established through the work of equipment and concepts that were created with the advancement of science and technology.

Thus, we can affirm that psychology as science and as a discipline, needed the interaction between philosophy and science, being dependent on this interaction until today.
