Does Veeky Forums consider psychology a science? Why do you / why not?

>yes we know memory is fallable
uncle bob who has very good people skills is just about as correct as someone who's able to predict the weather somewhat correctly by looking at the sky
that doesn't mean we should write off meteorology as a whole
>a multitude of bullshit unnecessary fields
>names the fields
>see? I have proven they are bullshit
you know nothing about any of those fields, the hypotheses they generate and the predictability of human behavior that comes from it
it's not like someone threw a dart at a board full of adjectives, saw the dart landed in "cognitive" and decided "we don't have that one yet, let's make it a field of psychology"
it's a name given retrospectively to a field that emerged at some time when researchers saw the need to branch out

IQ tests are the only legitimate part of psychology

neuropsych only non garbage subfield of psych

>Neuropsych
>Better than behavioral

Don't get me wrong I love neuropsych but its main findings are still young and shaky and as such the field isn't as reliable as many other psych fields. I tend to like that aspect in a way but comparing fields it's an obvious flaw.

Is your period key broken?

I'm a pretty big brainlet, but aren't humans constantly changing throughout the generations? How do you keep consistent data when the brain is forever adapting?

Because social sciences are for brainlets that use "an" incorrectly. Fuck, I would expect you to at least use proper grammar if you want to defend your field.

Only when findings can be explained and confirmed using hard scientific methods like neuroimaging, otherwise there is too much room for interpretation

Humans are just biomechanical automatons. Every human is a product of their perceived environment. Programmable and adaptable beyond the makers original design. Your lives are worthless and none of this made up garbage matters. Pull your head out f your butt. Its all psudoscience because you cant even prove you or your perceived world exist beyond your own mind.
