Question:

A weakness of the nomothetic approach?

Author: (Pippa) Pippa Holloway



Answer:

-Leads to the loss of understanding for the individual -Focusing on general laws of behaviour, we can miss important details and unique differences -Knowing for example 1% overall lifetime risk of developing SZ tells us little about the subjective experience of living with it -Therefore, it can overlook the richness of human data and miss out on important individualities.
