 Chapter 1 Thinking Critically With Psychological
Science (Modules 1–3)

Astronomer Owen Gingerich has described the human

brain as “by far the most complex physical object
known to us in the entire cosmos” (2006, p. 29). On
the scale of outer space, we are less than a single
grain of sand on all the oceans’ beaches, and our
lifetime lasts but a relative nanosecond. Yet there is
nothing more awe inspiring than our own inner space.
Our consciousness—our mind somehow arising from
matter— remains a profound mystery. Our thinking,
emotions, and actions (and their interplay with others’
thinking, emotions, and actions) fascinate us. Outer
space staggers us with its enormity. But inner space
enthralls us. Enter psychological science. From news
and media portrayals, you might think that
psychologists offer counseling, analyze personality,
dispense child-raising advice, examine crime scenes,
and testify in court. Do they? Yes—and much more.
Consider some of psychology’s questions that you
may wonder about: Have you ever worried about how
to act among people of a different cultural tradition,
gender identity, or sexual orientation, or among
people with differing abilities? How are we alike as
members of the human family? How do we differ?
Have you ever vowed to never react as one of your
biological parents would—but find yourself doing so
anyway—and then wondered how much of your
personality you inherited? To what extent do genes
predispose our individual differences in personality?
How do home and community environments shape
us? Have you ever awakened from a nightmare and
wondered why you had such a crazy dream? Why do
we dream? Why is sleep so important? Have you ever
played peekaboo with a 6-month-old and wondered
why the baby finds your disappearing/reappearing act
so delightful? What do babies perceive and think?
Have you ever wondered what fosters school and work
success? Does inborn intelligence explain why some
people get richer, think more creatively, or relate more
sensitively? Or does gritty effort, and a belief in the
power of persistence, matter more? Have you ever
become depressed or anxious and wondered when, or
if, it will pass? What affects our emotional well-being?
What’s the line between feeling “off” and a
psychological disorder? As we will see in Modules 1
and 2, psychology is a science that seeks to answer
such questions about us all—how and why we think,
feel, and act as we do.
