Name me one psychological THEORY that is accepted as law...
Name one law derived from the realm of psychology for that matter ...
After completing a Theories of Personalities course the only thing I realized was that as far as the brain goes nothing is set in stone. It's all very seriously theoretical ... at best. However the way most of the psychologists assert themselves they make it seem like their ideas are laws they discovered.
We're very far away from understanding EXACTLY how the human brain functions other than rudimentary regions that control very general areas of our bodies and thought processes.
To come to the conclusion that we're all predetermined to behave in very specific ways given the information we currently have is ludicrous. So to answer your thread question I say "No" it doesn’t as our brains are far too dynamic to be limited to a preset design. If their ideas were true then we would be so predictable in every single way imaginable ... like a robot.
We're organic and much the same way the brain, after receiving massive trauma, can sometimes reroute the brains processes to accommodate for the brain damage, we also adapt to situations and our brains mature as we age (frontal lobes "turn on" around 20ish they say). How could our brain reroute the same processes from one part to another if everything were preset? Our brains imo are not like a computer chip with preset transistors creating Boolean operatives to come to conclusions ... to think that that's how our decision making processes breaks down is narrow minded ... no pun.
It's shocking what science ppl believe in compared to what they don't given the bodies of evidence supporting either science. So much for logic ...
All of this I state as my opinion and not as fact btw because none of us really know.
The scary thing to me is when you can be put into an institution for some body elses theoretical concepts and ideas. The guy closest to actually replicating experiments over and over was Skinner and he was a behaviorist.
