Theory of knowledge among philosophers: a comparative analytical study

Abstract

Research in the field of epistemology was controversial among thinkers and researchers. Some of them believed that there was an agreement between them and the science of logic, considering that logic investigates the basic laws of human knowledge. A section went to define its scope as how to acquire knowledge or gain information. Therefore, in their opinion, it was a branch of contemporary psychology that presents the study of the mental processes that the mind consciously performs in gaining its information - such as sensory perception, imagination, memory, and the like - and this resulted in the theory of knowledge being considered a science because psychology, which it was attached to, has today become one of the partial sciences and is based on psychology and claims the validity of its issues, while the partial sciences refuse to accept it or take it as a basis for their research
