Social Studies

VikaD [51]3 years ago

Being an empiricist means to believe that all knowledge comes from sensory experience - something you see, feel, hear and touch.

Psychologists being empiricists is so important because being able to understand the brain's psyche and how it takes in information and reacts to it develops how and why someone may be struggling during their lifetime.

If a person has had childhood trauma, being an empiricist, you understand that they are experiencing emotional problems because this is something they have experienced - whether it is through touch, hearing, feeling or seeing it. This is because knowledge is not possible without experience.

Looking into someone's past is important to understand someone's present and why they may be experiencing a certain type of emotion. This is why psychologists being empiricists is so significant.
