Daily reminder that psychology is not a science and should be

>>8427451

Ok, thank you.

>>8427460
With sociology and gender studies of course.

>>8427451
What a pity. Up to the 1950s there was some good research in psychology, for example on propaganda, brainwashing and psychological torture. Today psychology students are only taught "gender" bullshit.

dont forget physics too

>>8427474
The studies of propaganda are actively being used in todays "democracy". Its easy to see their research was successful.

>>8427476
And math which is just a language and is useless on its own.

>>8427477
The CIA and similar institutions have their own research departments where they research how to use memes for brainwashing purposes. Memetic warfare has become reality.

>>8427451
>Science
>Knowledge gained by observation and experiment

Psychology uses observations (IQ testing or play observations for indivuals) and experiment (Randomised controlled trials for research).

I would say they have to use a lot of psychology in that so I guess the kikes just want to discredit psychology so they can have retards there and monopolize it for their own purposes? This would also limit how many people can see through the propaganda if they dont see psychology as useful so they dont study it?

>hurrrrr durrrrrrrr
>psychology is not le science
>IQ can't be scientific because I scored low on the online IQ test
When will those buttmad brainlets learn?

I'd take psychology more seriously if the people in the field were trying to solve their replication crisis instead of just continuing the circle jerk.

They shouldn't receive any funding for new projects until then.

>>8427544
No funding would mean they would collapse in a week lel.

>>8427451
It makes me really sad that discount Shirobako somehow became popular.

I guess that is my seasonal reminder that the average anime viewer is retarded.

>>8427498
Who the hell manages to score low on an online IQ test? Are you projecting?

>>8427554

They can have funds for replicating studies. And some of the funds can go towards reeducation. At the very least they need to learn what p hacking is and how not to do it.

>>8427492
And then fishing for p < .05 by manipulating data and using wrong statistical tests

>>8427573
That replication study you're referring too is largely considered bullshit now. They half assed a large majority of the studies and hand picked ones they thought would fail.

>>8427647

I'd believe that if psychologists weren't putting out papers with questionable methods like it's their job.

>>8427653
Psychologists are not scientists so it doesnt matter. The whole field is just alchemy.

>Daily reminder that psychology is not a science and should be abandoned and banished from academia.
Did you forgot to take your meds today?

>>8427653
I'm not asking you to believe it I'm saying what many experts of the field are saying. Just Google it.

I thought about this recently and realized that this is how science works

>>8427706
I think art should become science.

No, he's been seeing a psychologist, which is why he is still ill, and subsequently still shitposting.

>meds
therapeutics such as medicine would be the next wrung up on the scale of legitimate treatment.

>>8427451
Only evolutionary psychology can stay. The rest must go.

>>8427498

Psychology can't be a science because science relies on repeatable verifiable experiments.

Until we have the ability to copy and generally fuck about with brains we aren't going to be able to make psychology a science. And when we can do that, it still might not be considered ethical.

Right now its more of a useful proto-science. Like alchemy.

>>8427451
Daily reminder that applied crowd psychology runs the world.

How's physics slated for banning?

Daily reminder that psychology is only a science in classified circles.

Everything they teach the plebes is bullshit.
