description: This white paper, <i>The Role of Doctoral Studies in Shaping Modern Psychology</i>, explores how advanced doctoral research in psychology drives innovation, enhances mental health practices, and addresses contemporary challenges. Highlighting the impact of PhD by Thesis, Professional Doctorate, and PhD by Publication pathways, this paper from the European Doctoral School (EDS) examines how doctoral candidates expand psychological knowledge, bridge theory and practice, and lead advancements in areas like digital addiction, crisis management, and neuropsychological imaging. Essential for anyone interested in the future of psychology, this white paper demonstrates how doctoral programmes equip leaders to make meaningful contributions to both academic research and applied psychological practice.
