Öz: Bilinen ilk devirlerden beri insan, içinde yaşadığı evrendeki konumunu belirlemek amacıyla
kendisi ve çevresiyle ilgili sorulara cevap aramıştır. Sorular genellikle aynı kaldığı halde belli dönemlerde
bu sorulara verilen cevaplar değişmiş ve bilimsel gelişime katkı sağlamıştır. Modern psikolojinin
ortaya çıkışında ise özellikle ruh-beden ve insan-aşkın varlık ilişkisine getirilen açıklamalar
etkili olmuştur. Bu makalede, söz konusu ilişki biçimlerine yönelik yaklaşımlar ve bu yaklaşımların
psikolojinin bağımsız bir bilim dalı haline gelmesinde etkili olan yönleri kronolojik bir sıra ile ele
alınmaktadır. Makalenin temel önermesi, psikoloji alanındaki güncel eğilimleri anlamak için insana
dair yaklaşımın tarihi seyrine bakmanın önemli olduğudur.

Abstract: Since the early periods, human has sought answers to questions about himself and his
environment to determine his position in the universe he lives in. Although these questions have
remained the same the answers have changed in certain periods and have contributed to the development
of science. Explanations related to the relationships between body and soul/mind and
human and transcendent being had had a great influence on the emergence of modern psychology.
In this article, we chronologically put forth the approaches to these relationships and their effect on
psychology. The main argument of the article is that it is important to revise the course of history of
the approach to human in order to understand recent tendencies in psychology.
