Abstract
This chapter describes six recently formulated concepts that speak to the innovative approach of the present work and its reach into areas quite beyond other integrative attempts in psychology. For example, the chapter presents the science formula, which aims to explain how science works. The formula allows for a better approach to science and protecting against the retraction crisis in psychology. Next, this chapter then presents a model of how couples split or stay together; it is based on the current 25-step Neo-Eriksonian model. Third, the chapter describes a biopsychosocial model of executive function (EF). Next, the chapter a new disorder for consideration in psychiatry—stress dysregulation disorder. Next, the chapter addresses a revised concept of inner peace toward a better understanding psychological maturity and completeness. Finally, the chapter presents a speculative model that applies its developmental substage conception to larger entities. These include the evolution of societies, including the evolution of religion and spirituality.
