Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Although psychologists may have different interests and activities, they typically draw on and contribute to knowledge from other subfields. This helps to create a unified understanding of the field of psychology as a whole. The other answer choices are incorrect because psychologists do not necessarily perform research in every subfield, their interests and values are not always unified, and they do not exclusively use speculative methods.
