Psychology is harmful alchemy and shamanism. Why dont we banish it from science and stop financing this esoteric field? Neuroscience and psychiatry should absorb psychology. Its useless major for people who dont have social skills so they can be more efficient at mcdonalds.

psychology uses quantitative methods
It's just not a hard science you cock lord
If we should banish anything it would be sociology, psychology actually has some uses outside of targeted advertisement
Their reliability and validity is too low to be useful. Also they use qualitative research heavily.
Sociology actually has more reliability than psychology because they dont care about individual psyche. Psychology is just intuition with very very soft research so you are like 5-10% more right than regular layman. Its shit and there is no significance. No math and no anything. Its just a branch of philosophy.
stop fucking making this thread every day nobody here thinks psychology is a science
Sociology is more meritable than psychology because we can actually see people and define groups. We have something objective to study there. Psychology, not so much unless we're talking strictly neuroscience.
Psychology helps autists learn to be normies, so without psychology OP would still be a mute sperglord drooling over his tendies.
Techniques developed with clinical psychology are used to treat certain psychiatric disease states and have proven effectiveness vs. pharmacotherapy. Your point is invalid.
If occultism is fake then why does CERN practice it?
psychological research has had applications in literally so many places in everyday life that you dont even know. very subtle places that only now in this day and age we think are obvious but were not before and have changed due to psychological research. i think you would be seriously surprised.
