This activity is based on your own opinion, not anything found in study books.

In the years to come of 2020, 2025 and 2030 what do you think will be the most important psychological findings. How will social, cultural and technological changes impact those experiments or findings.

Answer 1

In the discipline of Psychology, are already witnessing a rise of neuroscience and cognition. This can be partially explained by the fact that we have now been able to develop technologies that allow us to map the activities of the brain and therefore find the neural correlates of mental processes and behavior. In the future, I would imagine this to be the dominant paradigm of psychology. This would perhaps also meet Psychology long quest to establish itself as a scientific field, similar to that of the natural sciences. Perhaps, we would have even developed technologies that allow us to cause individuals to think or behave in certain ways, just be stimulating neural connections in the brain.
