The Right Structure (Axiological Science) Brings Values, the "building blocks of thinking," Into Focus

Leon Pomeroy, Ph.D.

Author: "The New Science of Axiological Psychology"

A Textbook Presenting Two Paradigm Shifts in Science Giving Birth to a Second Science I Call Multipolar Science, to be distinguished from historic Monopolar or natural science. Multipolar Science acknowledges the existence of Values in a World of Facts beyond anything to be found throughout the pages of history. Multipolar Science is an integration of emerging Axiological Science and Natural Science. It's foremost applications are to be found in Axiological Psychology and Hartmanian Valuemetrics derived from philosopher Hartman's mathematical model of cognitive processes dedicated to valuation and thinking as systematically and empirically validated in the pages of "The New Science of Axiological Psychology." This advance in human knowledge (Pomeroy-Hartman Synthesis in the field psychology) holds profound implications for humanity in the 21st century once it's understood and then translated into science-based, compulsory moral education in the coming decades; among other rich and varied applications reflecting the universality of values in all human endeavors!

Pioneer in the field of preventive medicine:

Together with Professors Linus Pauling (Winner of Two Nobel Prizes), Professor R.J. Williams (Director, Clayton Foundation Biochemical Institute, University of Texas at Austin; Biochemist who discovered more Vitamins and Their Variants than variants than any other scientist in the world; author of "Biochemical Individuality" providing the foundation for a science-based preventive medicine), and a Group of Progressive Physicians (e.g., Dr. Robert McCullough, Former President of Lions International) Dr. Pomeroy Founded the world first International Preventive Medicine Society (IAPM) Devoted to New Thinking and Practices in medicine aimed at the prevention of chronic, degenerative diseases and optimal host resistance in infectious diseases. The IAPM admitted to membership Ph.D.s in Science, M.D.s, and Dentists sharing a common interest in advancing proactive, preventive, complimentary, integrative, biological medicine as opposed to the prevailing medical model of merely treating the signs and symptoms of disease. With the 21st century advances in genetic science are beginning to fulfill IAPM's vision of individualizing medicine rather than building on the findings of population statistics alone, of founding medicine on genetotrophic and orthomolecular concepts, of making clinical nutrition more responsive to the needs of individuals rather than statistically constructed RDAs that fail to address the realities of biochemical, biological, and genetic individuality. Dr. Pomeroy served as the first Ph.D. president of this international medical society in the 1970s at a time when its membership included some 1,000 physicians. Between 1970 and 1990 IAPM was the premier alternative medicine society for scientists, physicians, and dentists. In time the proliferation of competing preventive medicine societies, around strong personalities and professional specialization, lead to a decline in membership until loss of funding resulted in its being discontinued as a "home" for tomorrow's health care professionals today. The IAPM played an important role in educating the general public and in the passage of legislation favorable to preventive medicine in many states. Its members testified before congress with the result that a preventive medicine section of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was established.

"The New Science of Axiological Psychology" by Dr. Pomeroy (Published in Europe by Rodopi Press, 2005) is a Book Many Regard as Vigorously and Effectively Challenging Today's Half-Smart Psychology and its Highly Flawed, Dominant Paradigm Devoid of Value Science and Moral Science Foundations. A Dominant Paradigm that has Torn the Moral Fabric of Civilizations for some Hundred Years Giving Rise to Freud's "Civilization and its Discontents;" now Breeding What Dr. Pomeroy Refers to as the "Canaries" of Domestic and International Terrorism Increasingly Wearing Masks of Religious Fascism! "Half-Smart" Psychology and "Half Smart" Paradigm Because Today's Psychology and its Controlling Paradigm are Not Grounded in a Science of Values and Morals Without Which There Can Be No Science of Psychology or any Other Social Science for that matter! "Tragically Flawed" Civilizations Because they are all in the Grip of Run-Away Natural Science Without Moral Science Checks and Balances; Made Worse by Psychology and Medicine's Insidious Destruction of the Moral Fabric of Civilizations; all Six of them! It can be Argued that the Failure to Ground Psychology and Medicine in Moral Science Makes them Dangerous to Civilizations and Collectives Even as they Help Individuals Overcome Pain and Suffering. Some Might Argue that today's Psychology and Medicine are Elegant Faustian Bargains of Sorts! This is A Book Triggering an Intellectual Revolution Based on the Fulfillment of the Modern Project of Grounding Morals in Science for the First Time in the History of Any and All Civilizations! It is the Substance of Tomorrow's Mental Life Today! It is the Key to the Survival of Humankind as We Know it! It is a Book Worthy of Consideration for the Nobel Prize in a Lop Sided World of Materialism Made Worse by Hegemonic Natural Science (Mono-Polar Science) Without Moral Science Checks and Balances (Multi-Polar Science).

Research Note:

Our Approach to Values Research Involves the : Integration of Cognitive Psychology with Philosopher Robert S. Hartman's Formal Theory of Axiology (Mathematical Model of Value Structures and Dynamics and Derivative Value Profiling Methodology).

Dr. Pomeroy first became aware of Professor Hartman's unusual approach to the study of values while a clinical post doctoral intern at Manhattan's Albert Ellis Institute and Psychology Professor at Long Island University in the early 1970s. Involvement with establishing an international preventive medicine society resulted in deferring study of Hartman's method until the late 1970s at a time when Pomeroy sought to unpack the moral dimensions of health care and especially as they relate to patient compliance, self-reliance, motivation, and so forth. Pomeroy's first publication of empirical tests and measures supporting Hartman's work was in 1982 and is cited elsewhere. Hartman died in 1973. In 1983 at an international conference in Mexico celebrating Hartman's work Pomeroy presented five invited papers. Another international conference at Mexico City in 2001 saw the presentation of several more papers summarizing Pomeroy's continued work with empirical studies supporting Hartman's Mathematical Model and Value Profiling Methodology.

Dr. Pomeroy has presented papers at the annual meetings of The Robert S. Hartman Institute at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville for over twenty years. Much of these data now appear in his forthcoming book entitled "The New Science of Axiological Psychology," (Rodopi Press, Amsterdam, Fall, 2005).

drleonpomeroy@verizon.net

No individual has gathered more empirical data in support of Hartman's work (Hartman, R. S., "The Structure of Value", Southern Illinois University Press, Carbondale, Ill., 1967) than Dr. Pomeroy. who is the first Licensed Clinical and Published Research Psychologist to do so. He took Hartman's work seriously when others failed to do so. Pomeroy's publication of extensive tests and measures supporting Hartman's mathematical model and value profiling methodology render the anecdotal empirically inescapable! The world is now challenged to take this work seriously including the historic transformation of Hartman's work into a science of values and morals (Axiological Science) followed by the reconstruction of psychology around values and morals as a role model for all social sciences. Pomeroy recognized the need to unpack the moral dimensions of medicine and psychology with scientific precision in order to reinvigorate society's need to promote self reliance and rational choices in the field of health care, the fastest growing failing business in the world! Finding inspiration in Hartman's pioneering studies, Pomeroy achieved what he calls the Hartman-Pomeroy Synthesis building on the Epictetus-Ellis synthesis resulting in "The New Science of Axiological Psychology" standing as a role model for the reconstruction of all pre-scientific social sciences! Dr. Pomeroy's programmatic values research was funded by income from his private practice as his busy career of teaching and clinical practice permitted.

Value Profiling Methodology (HVP) permits the constructive of derivative Personality Profiles and Clinical Assessments for many and varied uses in health psychology and industrial psychology fields. An instrument that taps into value patterns held by individuals is an instrument commanding many and varied uses and for this reason it is referred to as "the power tool" of Axiological Psychology.

Value profiles, generated by Hartman's method form the basis for useful, meaningful and valid personality profiles and clinical diagnoses. This valuecentric diagnostic yields what mmay be called an "action diagnosis" comfortably bridging testing and interventions in a seamless fashion. This assessment methodology is found valid in both clinical and industrial, personal world and work world, applications. The range of practical applications for this "power tool" is limited only by the practitioners imagination.

Note: This book summarizes and reports scientific validity measures to create an empirical science of values, valuations, and morals for the first time in history and integrates this new science with the cognitive psychology theory and practice of the author. The book summarizes empirical tests and measures employed in the validation of Hartman's rigorous mathematical model of value and moral phenomena that transforms a value theory into an empirical science of values and morals while reconstructing psychology around values and morals. This historic, successful, and remarkable achievement unfolds in the pages of this book which serves as a role model for necessary and similar efforts in the remaining social sciences. drleonpomeroy@verizon.net**

	Pomeroy and Davis (1982) presented a paper before the Annual Meeting of the Southeastern Psychological Association (New Orleans, Louisiana, 1982) in which they reported concurrent validity findings for Hartman's mathematical model of value and moral phenomena for the first time. On invitation this paper was then published by the Cattell's Institute for Personality and Aptitude Testing in 1982 in recognition of its significant contribution to values research employing the Cattell CAQ and 16PF . .

II.	These data constitute the first systematic examination of philosopher Hartman's Value Theory. and Value Profiling Methodology (HVP). These positive findings by Pomeroy and Davis (1982) establish for the first time the validity of Hartman's value theory (formal axiology) and its derivative value profiling methodology. These data cleared a path for Pomeroy's programmatic values research resulting in the publication of a book entitled The New Science of Axiological Psychology some twenty years later (Rodopi Press, 2005). The author successfully transformes Hartmanian Value Theory into Empirical Value Science which he integrates with cognitive science and cognitive psychology theory and practice. Specifically the author integrates Ellisonian Cognitive Psychology with Hartmanian Value Theory and the result yields a historic advance in cognitive science and cognitive psychology. Specifically the author's work integrates the Hartman-Pomeroy and Epictetus-Ellis Syntheses in the fields of cognitive science and cognitive psychology replacing tragically flawed and Psychoanalysis whose historic, medically sponsored, hegemony has damaged the moral fabric of civilizations! The publication of this book transforms today's Mono-Polar World of Science into Tomorrow's Multi-Polar World of Science today! See explanation this web site!

III.	The publication by Pomeroy and Davis (1982) also introduced the concepts of Behavioral Axiology, Valuecentric Cognitive Psychology and Valuecentric Psychometrics (or Valuemetrics) and staked out a new conceptual framework for the development of new thinking in psychology and the social sciences around values and morals having profound implications and applications for humankind the world over. Hartman's book followed by this publication in 1982 and more recently Pomeroy's book in 2005 set the stage for a revolution in how we think about good and evil in the 21st century!

IV.	Subsequent work by Pomeroy and Bishop (1991), followed by a Doctoral Dissertation by Pomeroy's student Gary Gallopin (1999) in the field of cultural anthropology, and more recently Pomeroy's book (Rodopi Press, 2005) have significantly and dramatically extended the earlier findings of Pomeroy and Davis (1982).

Past President, Robert S. Hartman Institute (With Resources at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville) 1999-2006

President Emeritus, Ambassador, and Board Member, Robert S. Hartman Institute, 2006-Present

Pioneer in the field of preventive medicine: Together with Professors Linus Pauling (Winner of Two Nobel Prizes), Professor R.J. Williams (Director, Clayton Foundation Biochemical Institute, University of Texas at Austin; Biochemist who discovered more Vitamins and Their Variants than variants than any other scientist in the world; author of "Biochemical Individuality" providing the foundation for a science-based preventive medicine), and a Group of Progressive Physicians (e.g., Dr. Robert McCullough, Former President of Lions International) Dr. Pomeroy Founded the world first International Preventive Medicine Society (IAPM) Devoted to New Thinking and Practices in medicine aimed at the prevention of chronic, degenerative diseases and optimal host resistance in infectious diseases. The IAPM admitted to membership Ph.D.s in Science, M.D.s, and Dentists sharing a common interest in advancing proactive, preventive, complimentary, integrative, biological medicine as opposed to the prevailing medical model of merely treating the signs and symptoms of disease. With the 21st century advances in genetic science are beginning to fulfill IAPM's vision of individualizing medicine rather than building on the findings of population statistics alone, of founding medicine on genetotrophic and orthomolecular concepts, of making clinical nutrition more responsive to the needs of individuals rather than statistically constructed RDAs that fail to address the realities of biochemical, biological, and genetic individuality. Dr. Pomeroy served as the first Ph.D. president of this international medical society in the 1970s at a time when its membership included some 1,000 physicians. Between 1970 and 1990 IAPM was the premier alternative medicine society for scientists, physicians, and dentists. In time the proliferation of competing preventive medicine societies, around strong personalities and professional specialization, lead to a decline in membership until loss of funding resulted in its being discontinued as a "home" for tomorrow's health care professionals today. The IAPM played an important role in educating the general public and in the passage of legislation favorable to preventive medicine in many states. Its members testified before congress with the result that a preventive medicine section of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was established.

Current Research Interests: Unpacking the moral dimensions of medicine and health care employing axiological science. Medical ethics, the development of a universal language and curriculum for moral education, the causal relationship between "moral insanity" and "clinical insanity;" debunking post modernism and moral relativism; identifying the need to upgrade 3R education to 4R education, growing tensions between high tech natural science and low tech moral philosophy, the tragic flaw in the character of modern civilizations with run away natural science and technology without moral science checks and balances, the asymmetric evolution of civilizations grounded in the transformation of natural philosophies such as alchemy and astrology into chemistry and astronomy without the co-evolution of moral philosophy into moral science, advancing Multi-Polar Science as distinguished from Mono-Polar Science, grounding the virtues of self reliance and rational health choices in axiological science so as to contribute to the rescue of societies from their fastest growing failing businesses of health care and incarceration and the inoculation of combat soldiers against the signs and symptoms of PTSD.

Pioneer in the fields of basic and applied axiological science leading to a "preventive psychology" paradigm and curriculum development in the field of universal, transcultural, religiously-neutral "moral education." This Research is Inspired by Dr. Pomeroy's Work With World War II Veterans at the Outpatient Clinic, Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Brooklyn, New York; by an Academic Association with Professor G. M. Gilbert, Ph.D. , Principal Psychologist, Nuremberg Trials and Author of "The Psychology of Dictatorship; by an Association with Internationally Renown Psychoanalyst, Editor and Writer Benjamin Wolman, Ph.D. (Author of "Call No Man Normal") With Whom Dr. Pomeroy Collaborated in Editing "The Handbook of General Psychology," Prentice-Hall, 1973; by an Association with Philosopher and Chairman of the Philosophy Department, University of Tennessee at Knoxville, in the Advancement of Empirical Studies Confirming the Validity of Philosopher Hartman's mathematical model (formal axiology) of valued and moral phenomena for which Professor Hartman was Nominated for the Nobel Prize; by an Extended Clinical Post Doctoral Internship and Fellowship under Albert Ellis, Ph.D., Director of the Ellis Institute at 45 East 65th Street, Manhattan a Time When Ellis was One of the Most Vigorous and Articulate Critics of Psychoanalysis and the Psychoanalytic Hegemony Gripping Manhattan Between 1945 and 1970; and by an Association with Professors Roger Williams, Ph.D. of Texas and Linus Pauling of California and Organization Work Advancing New Thinking in Medicine Around Genetogrophic and Orthomolecular Concepts and Practices Laying the Foundation for Tomorrow's Preventive Medicine Today and the End of Medicine as the Fastest Growing Failing Business in the World..

Dr. Hernandez-Peon's Lectures to our Group of American Graduate Students and Latin American Physicians Were Memorable and Inspiring. In Later Years Dr. Pomeroy Learned While Lecturing at the National University of Mexico (2001), Following The "911" Attack, That Dr. Hernandez-Peon was a Friend of Professor Robert S. Hartman who had Lectured at the National University. Dr. Pomeroy Discovered Hartmanm's Writings While a Clinical Post Doctoral Fellow at the Albert Ellis Institute in Manhattan Many Years Later. The Mexican Connection Remains Strong Following the Establishment of a Mexican Branch of the Robert S. Hartman Institute in 2004 With the Help of Mexican Friends and Associates at the Robert S. Hartman Institute, USA.

During This Period of Internship, then Professor Pomeroy also served full time (Associate P:rofessor) on the psychology faculty of a recently established clinical psychology doctoral program at Long Island University. (Professor G. M. Gilbert, Chairman and Former Chief Psychologist, Nazi Nuremberg Trials, Germany, and Author, "Psychology of Dictatorship," and other studies growing out of his World War II Experiences). Professor Pomeroy also collaborated with Senior Professor Benjamin Wolman in the editing of scholarly publications including The Handbook of Genral Psychology (Prentice-Hall, 1973). Professor Wolman was a World Renown Psychoanalyst, Editor, Writer, and Publisher at the time. It was during this period also that Professor Pomeroy collaborated with Professor Linus Pauling of California and Professor R. J. Williams of Texas in the Founding of the worlds first international preventive medicine society at a time when physicians and scientists were not organized in this field. Following completion of a clinical post-doctoral internship at the Ellis Institute on Manhattan's Upper East Side, Professor Pomeroy accepted an invitation to serve full time on the clinical staff of the Outpatient Clinic, Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center at Brooklyn while engaged in launching a part time private practice on Manhattan's Upper East Side. His subsequent years of clinical practice with veterans and Manhattan clients provided him with a rich clinical experience, and personal satisfaction, of the sort only possible in one of the world's greatest cities.)

	TOUR OF RESEARCH HORIZONS WITH NOTES
	Pomeroy and Davis (1982) presented a paper before the Annual Meeting of the Southeastern Psychological Association (New Orleans, Louisiana, 1982) in which they reported concurrent validity findings for Hartman's mathematical model of value and moral phenomena for the first time. On invitation this paper was then published by the Cattell's Institute for Personality and Aptitude Testing in 1982 in recognition of its significant contribution to values research employing the Cattell CAQ and 16PF . .

II.	These data constitute the first systematic examination of philosopher Hartman's Value Theory. and Value Profiling Methodology (HVP). These positive findings by Pomeroy and Davis (1982) establish for the first time the validity of Hartman's value theory (formal axiology) and its derivative value profiling methodology. These data cleared a path for Pomeroy's programmatic values research resulting in the publication of a book entitled The New Science of Axiological Psychology some twenty years later (Rodopi Press, 2005). The author successfully transformes Hartmanian Value Theory into Empirical Value Science which he integrates with cognitive science and cognitive psychology theory and practice. Specifically the author integrates Ellisonian Cognitive Psychology with Hartmanian Value Theory and the result yields a historic advance in cognitive science and cognitive psychology. Specifically the author's work integrates the Hartman-Pomeroy and Epictetus-Ellis Syntheses in the fields of cognitive science and cognitive psychology replacing tragically flawed and Psychoanalysis whose historic, medically sponsored, hegemony has damaged the moral fabric of civilizations! The publication of this book transforms today's Mono-Polar World of Science into Tomorrow's Multi-Polar World of Science today! See explanation this web site!

III.	The publication by Pomeroy and Davis (1982) also introduced the concepts of Behavioral Axiology, Valuecentric Cognitive Psychology and Valuecentric Psychometrics (or Valuemetrics) and staked out a new conceptual framework for the development of new thinking in psychology and the social sciences around values and morals having profound implications and applications for humankind the world over. Hartman's book followed by this publication in 1982 and more recently Pomeroy's book in 2005 set the stage for a revolution in how we think about good and evil in the 21st century!

Subsequent work by Pomeroy and Bishop (1991), followed by a Doctoral Dissertation by Pomeroy's student Gary Gallopin (1999) in the field of cultural anthropology, and more recently Pomeroy's book (Rodopi Press, 2005) have significantly and dramatically extended the earlier findings of Pomeroy and Davis (1982).
