Postmodern psychology is an approach to psychology that questions whether an ultimate or singular version of truth is actually possible within the field of psychology. This type of psychological approach relies on using a range of different methodologies rather than a singular approach. Psychologists who use this postmodern theory view reality as complex and avoid singular approaches in order to counteract or avoid oversimplification. Post-modernism curtails rationale as by definition it is an abstract "non-existent" method being limited as post modernism and being virtually inseparable from regular standards of today, whilst given as an unlimited ethos. With postmodern psychology the normal technique of philosophical debunking of rationale becomes paradoxically problematic. The understanding of the human psyche through systematic analysis is flawed inherently through absence of objectability. Considering the post-modern approach, one must retain a polarized and transmutable position metaphorically in order to attain conceptual hold of the self subjectively as the object. That given, opinionated transformation of ideology is authorised by the fundamental respected definitions of reason, and inherent knowledge through instinct and intuition.
