conservative psychology

Conservative psychology is an approach that emphasizes the importance of traditional values, social stability, and order in understanding human behavior. It suggests that people are naturally inclined toward certain moral standards and social structures, which help maintain cohesion within communities. This perspective often advocates for respect for established institutions, caution with rapid change, and the belief that enduring cultural norms guide healthy psychological development. It recognizes that individual well-being is connected to social and cultural stability, and that preserving time-tested values can foster resilience and continuity within societies.
