ABSTRACT
In his article, Ribes (2009) reviews the participation of ordinary
language in psychology and how this practice has
led to misconceptions and the coexistence of multiple
psychologies with different objects of study. It is proposed
to critically reflect for the abolition of such practices.
However, no account is taken about the risks in a unique
approach excluding all other psychologies. Finally, this paper
examine how other theoretical approaches advance
and converge in the study of psychological knowledge without
having attempted a unique theoretical approach.
