Is psychology a flyover science?

I would pay more and tolerate two layovers to fly a route that circumvents it completely

Psychology has already been strip mined of all useful development. Its only purpose now is commercial, like studying consumer response to marketing and product presentation

No. It's a science that is so complex (the brain) that it is hard to study, because the brain is extremely complex.

>this thing is very complex and therefore difficult to study
>therefore, we will embrace whatever some political deviant comes up with when he's on a coke binge and have that be our dogma for decades

>>8303857
Wha-

>>8303857
Are you implying the brain isn't complex and therefore not hard to study?

Nigger nobody has taken Freud seriously for a very, very long time and Freud has little to do with modern day psychology being a bit of a joke.

Psychologie can explain some pain that are not physical but only in our pshyche no ?

The brain is very complex, and is hard to study. Thus, our only choice is to accept whatever Freud came up with when he was chatting with his daughter about incest while both of them were high as fuck.

You are sadly mistaken and thus revealed how little you know about the field. Basically what this >>8303861 guy said. Also, stop strawmanning, it's annoying.

>>8303874
No one takes Freud seriously. What do you even think this?

Well /sci/. Whats the "consensus" here on the debate?

Psychology and a lot of other social sciences are in a pre-scientific stage. There's no widespread consensus among practitioners of the discipline.
