Psychology: Pseudo-Psychologies - From Planets to Palms

伪心理学:从星座到手掌

Pseudo-psychologies ("pseudo-" means false) are dubious and unfounded systems of predicting behavior that superficially resemble psychology. What are some of these pseudo-psychologies? Why do some people accept them as valid?

伪心理学表面看上去像是心理学,但它预测人类行为的机制既靠不住又没有事实依据。伪心理学有哪些经典案例?为什么人们会相信它们是真的?

Probably the most popular pseudo-psychology is astrology. It is based on the assumption that the position of the planets and stars at the time of a person's birth determines personality characteristics and affects behavior. Palmistry, another pseudo-psychology, claims that the lines in the hand are indicators of personality and the person's future.

最著名的伪心理学大概是占星术(星座论)。占星术的理论基础建立在这样一个假设上:一个人出生时行星的位置决定了这个人的性格并且会影响他/她的行为。手相是另一种伪心理学,声称手上的线条昭示了这个人的性格和未来运势。

Graphology, a third pseudo-psychology, indicates that personality is revealed by a person's handwriting. Although graphology is only moderately popular in the United States, some companies in this country use handwriting analysis to evaluate job applicants. Even though graphology is definitely valuable in detecting forgeries, careful test of accuracy in psychological studies have shown that graphologists score close to zero in rating personality.
