Is it possible to turn psychology into "hard science"? Physics of the mind
follows the fundamental methodology of physics in all areas where physics have
been developed. What is common among Newtonian mechanics, statistical physics,
quantum physics, thermodynamics, theory of relativity, astrophysics? and a theory
of superstrings? The common among all areas of physics is a methodology of
physics discussed in the first few lines of the paper. Is physics of the mind
possible? Is it possible to describe the mind based on the few first principles
as physics does? The mind with its variabilities and uncertainties, the mind from
perception and elementary cognition to emotions and abstract ideas, to high
cognition. Is it possible to turn psychology and neuroscience into "hard"
sciences? The paper discusses established first principles of the mind, their
mathematical formulations, and a mathematical model of the mind derived from
these first principles, mechanisms of concepts, emotions, instincts, behavior,
language, cognition, intuitions, conscious and unconscious, abilities for
symbols, functions of the beautiful and musical emotions in cognition and
evolution. Some of the theoretical predictions have been experimentally
confirmed. This research won national and international awards. In addition to
summarizing existing results the paper describes new development theoretical and
experimental. The paper discusses unsolved theoretical problems as well as
experimental challenges for future research.
