The article summarizes the discussion that took place on the pages of the Psychological Journal in 2025, aimed at analyzing modern scientific approaches in Russian psychology, which were presented in the collective monograph “Scientific Approaches in modern Russian Psychology” (2023), the main ideas of their comparative analysis are set out in a short journal article “Modern Approaches in Russian Psychology Unity in diversity” (2024). The discussion was attended by nine scientists representing different scientific schools in psychology. Their detailed comments, on the one hand, contain judgments that promote the positions expressed in the article, but, on the other, raise controversial and problematic issues of the attempted analysis of psychological approaches. The authors of the discussion articles note the importance and scientific significance of the collective monograph, which unites 27 approaches of modern Russian scientists. It provided an opportunity to present the landscape of the modern development of Russian psychology, highlight trends in its development, show the evolution in the development of approaches, their mutual influence and intersections. The controversial division of approaches into sections (general psychological, general scientific, specifically psychological, scientific approaches in applied psychology) and the incompleteness of their composition are often highlighted. These and other questions raised are discussed in this paper. The discussion that took place actualized the idea of the opposing circle, which is necessary for the development of science. The authors are grateful to all the debaters, and hope for continued discussion and further developments in the methodology of psychological science.
