About this Quote

This quote by Naomi Weisstein is a criticism of the way psychologists have actually approached the research study of women. Weisstein is suggesting that psychologists have approached the research study of females with a baseless sense of certainty and infallibility. This indicates that psychologists have actually not taken into account the complexities of women's experiences and have instead depended on outdated stereotypes and presumptions. Weisstein is most likely suggesting that psychologists should approach the research study of females with more humbleness and openness to the variety of women's experiences. She is likewise most likely recommending that psychologists must be more aware of the potential predispositions and prejudices that might be influencing their research. Ultimately, Weisstein is calling for a more nuanced and respectful technique to the research study of females.
