The cognitive approach is probably the most dominant approach in psychology today and has been applied to a wide range of practical and theoretical contexts. Combines easily with approaches: e.g. Behaviourism + cognitive psychology = social learning theory; biology + cognitive psychology = evolutionary psychology. The cognitive approach attempts to apply a scientific approach to human behaviour, which is reductionist in that it doesn't necessarily take into account such differences. However, popular case studies of individual behaviour such as HM have lead cognitive psychology to take into account ideosynchracies of our behaviour.
