女性心理学的进化与后现代女性心理学的产生(4)
在方法论的选择方面，后现代女性主义明确反对实证主义的价值中立说。后现代女性心理学的主要代表人物，美国心理学家玛丽·格根曾经明确指出：第一，事实并不独立于理论和方法，事实不是独立的，它处在一定的理论框架之内；第二，科学家和被研究者之间是相互作用的，两者之间的关系影响着研究的结果，科学家不可能“客观”和“中立”。特别是对于女性主义这样一个充满价值色彩的事业，不可能为了加强研究结果的效度而保持“价值中立”。女性心理学不仅仅是一个学术活动，它同时也是一场政治运动。它的目标是“为了”(for)女性而研究，而不仅仅是“关于”(about)女性的研究。因此，女性心理学的价值色彩是明显的，它的根本目的是要揭示压抑女性、病体化女性的社会条件，促进妇女的真正解放。
