Abstract

Psychology can be considered a humanity as well as a science. This paper examines distinctions between the humanities and the sciences and suggests five characteristics of a humanity. After reviewing previous pleas to broaden the perspective of psychology, three examples are provided of psychology as a humanity. Finally, the impact that this view might have on teaching and research is discussed.
