| Abstract: |
“What is Descriptive Psychology?” –a seemingly simple question that turns out to be extraordinarily complex and deeply frustrating. Drawing on first-hand experience as a Descriptive Psychologist since its inception in 1964, I will offer a guided tour of what Descriptive Psychology was and is, and how it has been and can be described. We will begin at the beginning with DP 1.0, as delineated in Persons by its founder Peter G.Ossorio, and move forward through versions leading up to the current DP 2015. Along the way we will see that answering that tricky question is not easy – but it is both doable and worth doing, when you drop the details and see what remains. |
