Abstract
Recent shifts in the publication scene are interpreted to signify a restoration of the theoretical emphasis and a decline of the empiricism that has characterized personality and social psychology in the 50's and the 60's. It is contended that the empiricist creed may have obstructed scientific progress, and that the modi operandi of personality and social psychologists need to change.Keywords
