English to Spanish Other Psychology Professor lecturing about Psychology

They ask why anyone would want to know about color vision (or language acquisition, or whatever) in the first place. And they also ask what any topic in the course has to do with any other. They ask such questions because they, unlike the advanced students, have not yet accepted the premises of the field. They wonder whether the emperor is really wearing clothes. As a result, they made me ask myself what the field of psychology is all about and how it hangs together - what the emperor’s clothes are really like when you look at them closely.
