The first point that the lecturer makes is that, psychologist studied the relation between mind and social behavior. According to professor, he assumes that any behavior affected by biological, psychological and social factors. This point from the lecturer contrasts with the reading because the reading only says that the human mind as function of of the brain. Though is a result of chemical and mechanical laws that govern brain action.
Another point that the lecturer uses to cast doubt on the reading is, social science psychologist based on subjective phenomenon. The lecturer claims that psychologist used quantitative and qualitative methods in description of human behavior, and they use certain data to give a new theory. However, the reading only states that psychology based on objective facts.
Finally, the professor stated that, on the contrary of the reading, cognition psychology have natural science base. In other word, he studied integration of mental and human behavior. This contradicts the final idea of the reading passage because it only says that, psychology is concerned with biological bases of behavior and mental states.
