The argument someone in psychology makes is the conclusion they come to based on their findings gathered through research methods. Even though a researcher’s conclusions might seem to be proved by data, the conclusion still remains an argument due to the possibility of a different conclusion being arrived at by a fellow psychological researcher studying the same topic. An argument can also be presented in a hypothesis. An article by Patricia B. Nemec and Galia S. Moran titled, “Walking on the Sunny Side: What Positive Psychology Can Contribute to Psychiatric Rehabilitation Concepts and Practice”, hypothesizes that, “Employing a positive psychology framework can advance research on recovery phenomena and be used to assess rehabilitation outcomes.” (Nemec, Moran 202). Nemec and Moran’s argument is not supported by research, their article is simply putting forth an idea of theirs.
