Beyond the familiar preferences of the previous critical studies in the fieldwork, which re‐ considers the topics of trend analysis, citations, individual differences, statistics, content analysis, educational psychology deconstruction, orresearch methodology, this exegesis de‐ lineates five major themes considered important for the future development of theories, practices from the educational psychology services, and public policy. Thetitleofthebook,EducationalPsychology-BetweenCertitudesandUncertainties,isrelevant for dynamic and low predictable research from genetics, neurosciences, technologies, and empirical evidence of the relationship between mind, brain plasticity, communication, and education that produces challenges and exchanges across sciences. There are various per‐ spectives on the epistemology in the field, new results of experiments, different hermeneu‐ tics and misinterpretations of data collected, multiple scientific simulations, and diverse substantial evaluative data. Eccentric, exotic, and strange theories of thenew epistemiccom‐ munities coexist with traditional approaches to educational psychology. This new frame‐ work argues that this book is to be considered a fairly unique and realistic way to rebuild the incongruities and paradoxes in this area. Naturally, “certitudes and uncertainties” is a common denominator for the existing sophisticated academic conventions and for the im‐ mense potential of continuous professional development. The title of the book reflects the stateoftheart,anewtrendintheconceptualfabricofeducationalpsychology,andanatti‐ tude toward an academic market in the age of many battles in the world of science. Adistinctive characteristic of this book is that it intends to provide a new perspective on the current hypothesis from educational psychology. It consists of five chapters, covers the most discussedproblems from theareas of study, and brings together notoriousexperts from dif‐ ferent cultures. From the number of intentions submitted, four contributions were selected and incorporated. Within each chapter, theories linked with practice issues and emerging conclusions are ex‐ amined. Thefirstchapter(authorVictorițaTrif)examinesthepolarizedparadigmsfromeducational psychology, combining parallel explanations and concerningtheidentity of the scientific do‐ main.Theresearchquestionsareininterdependencewithfuturetrendsinthefieldwork,as well as with a new comprehension of uncontrolled multiliteracy and of the contemporary state of interconnected paths, models, or reconsidered branches of psychology. The title of the chapter (“Will a Cooperation between Polarized Paradigms in Educational Psychology Be Possible?”) suggests a possible answer to the potential cognitive model of solving an asynchronous conglomeration of knowledge in the area.
