Why are there so many dumbass people who don't understand that psychology is a real science. It cannot be proven that is ISN'T a real science and is just as important as the "hard" sciences. There is no basis for this bullshit claim yet so many people claim it willingly. Some of you do it, too and I don't understand why you do it.
Psychology isnt a real science? Really?
Well modern psychology has started to incorporate Neuroscience since they realized that as Neuroscience progresses it'll eventually destroy many psychological theories.
I was talking to my sister, who has her masters in psychology, about how who removed being trans as a mental illness. She thought it was a good thing and compared it to gay's once being considered mentally ill. Told her the only reason they removed that was because of huge social pressure from advocacy groups. She said good, that we were wrong about it. I asked her if she sees a problem with then changing definitions of a mental illness just on the basis of outside social pressure, and what if being a pedophile in the future was made not to be considered a mental illness because of advocacy groups alone? She said that I'm making her uncomfortable with the pedophelia comparison, and just shut down.
Its unfortunate my sister can't think for herself.
>dumbass people who don't understand that psychology is a real science
Well newfag its not a science.
Dont make me take the study of subject behavior and put it in biology and the study of how hormones and chemicals affect the brain and put it in physical chemistry.
psychotherapy is a neurotic jewish creation
>Well newfag its not a science
OH damn!! Way to provide no basis for the argument just like I said.
that's embarassing, you'd expect a psychologist to be able to entertain a thought at least
Psychology, as whole, is simply the study of the human brain and how it interacts with the world around it.
from senses, to hormonal & chemical reactions, to instinct and patterns of behavior. There are many aspects to Psychology.
Psychology could be as simple as having a son, and watching your infant child interact and grow curious as his consciousness expands. That curiosity, that measured learning. THAT is merely observation - and this observation makes it a science.
All science is based on observation (and hypothesis and theories and all that yada). For you to simply say “it isn’t a real science”. Then what do you call that feeling you get inside from observing your son?
well, user. You do remember most colleges are already taken over and are offer nothing short of indoctrination.
OF COURSE, A Woman, no less, wouldn’t be able to engage in such a form of thinking. The bitch is only worried about appearing “right” and “non-controversial” as possible
Remember that most people are probably FAR more stupid than your sister.
This is a society.
>For you to simply say “it isn’t a real science”. Then what do you call that feeling you get inside from observing your son?
Subjective non-verifiable personal experience.
That isn't science, it has to be a formalized methodology, idiot, not just personally observing things from your own perspective without a standardized method.
it's a real science
anyone who doesn't know this is reahdud
It is a real science, but it's kind of like lawyering or banking. It's evil and manipulative.
Science doesn't have any inherent moral value.
What are you considering as psychology, or what falls under its umbrella?
What about psychoanalysis?
I'd say you're retarded if you consider that scientific.
Psychoanalysis is just Jewish perversion/neurosis. Other parts of the field are more in line with philosophy and metaphysics than actual fact. Psychology rooted in biochemistry and neuroscience is the only valid part of the field.
>Tell people what they want to hear for money
>It's science bro
I love you, that'll be 100 bucks and cup of sage.
Jew brainwashing detected.
Understand the basis of modern psychology and psychiatry.
It's called psychoanalysis and it was created and refined by juden for use on the goyim.
This is pretty basic stuff; have you read Culture of Critique yet? Lurk more mayne.
And all those standardized methods that have been developed throughout the years.
THE SCIENCE that is called “Infant and early child development”. let me guess, “LOL IT ISN’T REAL”. right?
The Great Psychologists throughout the years all had it wrong. right? It’s all hog-wash. and nonsense.
and btw, THAT FEELING one gets from observing their son. I imagine it’s that UNIVERSAL wonder we all feel, as humans, and as parents, that SPAWNED the very study of Psychology
That's why you a the people who practice it are evil. It's souless, and so are you. Just like a lawyer, just like a banker.
What has pschology ever done that has been good? It's just manipulation. To control beliefs, behavior, thought processes, etc. All psychology has ever done is enslave. You have freed yourself and others from morality, and made them slaves to your science. Well done.
The problem with Psychology is that certain subfields within the field itself is kind of bullshit, yet others are supported by biology (Hormones) and Neuroscience.
The whole field isn't false, I will admit some of it is bullshit though.
>psychology = clinical psychology

(((The Great Psychologists)))
If they were right, how come psychology remains divided in different ideologies and neuroscience keeps shitting on their theories?
>PSYCHOLOGY
The study of the human mind and how it interacts with the environment around it. Internal and externally.
>PSYCHOANALYSIS
Hish-Hash, pseudo-intellectuals like to claim they are masters of. “Lol, dude. I can totally psychoanalise you. That’s how I knew you’d like the color red, and that Muse would be your favourite rock band”.
Friends, what are you doing? why re you lumping PSYCHOLOGY with PSYCHOANALYSIS?
way to grasp for straws just to fit your nonsense argumentative agendas
>t. Psychology undergrad
Stop wasting your money. Your degree is completely worthless. Change your major to literally anything else.
Did you bother to read my post?
>Neuroscience, the very study of how human’s work (all that complicated stuff about the nervous system and electrical impulses) shits on PSYCHOLOGY. which is just a broad way of defining “The Study of the Mind”.
Gee, we have a genius here guys. Who would have fucking known that A MORE COMPLICATED FIELD would shit on another field, that although ISN’T FAKE, doesn’t exactly teach it’s students all the complications and intricacies of the human nervous system (and brain).
Only those with TRUE PASSION for how Human’s work would study PSYCHOLOGY & NEUROSCIENCE (and Sociology, and a little bit every other subset of Psychology) this is why you have psuedo-psychologists, like the example of the user’s sister that couldn’t even engage in critical thinking.
Psychology is merely a gateway to a far more interesting and complicated field to study
Psych major here. It's 90% fake and gay. 10% is mostly interesting and not too useful.
Ex. MBTI test is flat out unscientific due to nonreproduceability. That's the definition of science:ability to be tested and it becomes a theorem/law if it's confirmed repeatedly. Which Psych cannot do.
Bipolar/schizo/etc are real and over diagnosed. You don't need any degree at all to tell that something is wrong with them.
Things like Pluralistic Ignorance and False Consensus are interesting but useless.
I read your post. my only question for you is WHY IN THE FLYING FUCKING FUCK. did you bring op “Psychoanalysis” in response to OP when what he is talking about is PSYCHOLOGY?
you’re not helping
>Only those with TRUE PASSION for how Human’s work would study PSYCHOLOGY & NEUROSCIENCE
>Attempting to lump a real science with hippie bullshit
I wonder (((why)))
Sounds like you were molested as a child and lust for penis. Here, have some cocaine. It will cure you. - Probably Sigmund Freud.
Typical jewish "science" and "jokes".
>science is 'a feeling you get inside'
Nice troll user
Psychoanalysis is a part of psychology you absolute brainlet. Did you not even take a psych class in high school?
Wow! You must be schizophrenic! Here, have this big box of pills! I'm sure you'll be cured now.
That will be 6 gorullion dollarydoos.
It's not, it's just forcing other people's opinions on reasonable men and women.
My guy… I have written THE DEFINITION of Psychology numerous times by now.
Neuroscience is a VERY REAL and FAR MORE COMPLICATED field than simple “Psychology”. It deals in the physical, chemical, and overall OBSERVABLE changes in the body and how that can effect the PSYCHOLOGY of a person.
PSYCHOLOGY, in of itself, is simply the study of the mind. There are many aspects, Neurological, instinctual, Behavioural, genes & memes (Yes, MEMES - as defined by Richard Dawkin). There are many aspects to PSYCHOLOGY.
I am not telling Anons to go and “get a psychology degree”. That would be the dumbest thing. akin to getting a damn “BA in Black culture and histories in America”. But to boldly and simply state “PSYCHOLOGY IS NOT A REAL SCIENCE” is stupid
Thanks for that blogpost leaf
Psych major is a good major to pick up batshit crazy chicks who will probably knife you.
>OP is trying to convince everyone that he did not waste four years of his life studying psychology versus an actual STEM major.
If it is a real science, how come so much research can't be replicated (which is an essential part of science).
science.sciencemag.org
Businesses actually buy the MBTI... Which is about as accurate as a horoscope.
The entirety of science is facing a reproducability problem right now. Every single field except hard mathematics.
couldn’t agree more,
but you need to dabble in “Psychology” before you can get into the more complicated and REAL stuff. like neuroscience
TOP LE FUCKING KEKE.

True, there is a lot of junk science in a lot of fields...but it is especially a problem in psychology.
Mind elaborating? I agree but I just want to know more about where you're coming from.
It CAN and HAS BEEN replicated dumbass. Remember those things called Aptitude and IQ tests? You know about how we determine of an individual is mentally ill (with the amon's sister story being an exception rather than a rule)? Brain elasticity? All of this is psychology or did you forget that when you were getting fucked in the ass by the "STEM" propaganda shit being pushed for years?
Did you click on the link? 33-50% are not reproduceable.
Please take this as true.
When I was younger, they told me I had autism. The truth was that I never fit in due to me not being good at sports, not wanting a girlfriend, and me withdrawing due to being bullied.
I was bullied for not using their slang, dressing different. All I did at home was do homework and play videogames because I couldn't make a companion for all those vain and vapid reasons they invented.
I actually have great conversational skills and lack obsessions.
If other people lack respect, humility, and tact and set high standards for companionship...then I'm not sick.
It's pop science. It exactly mirrors pop culture. Trannies are no longer a mental illness, video game addiction is, as of this year, according to (((psychologists))). (((Feminists))) love trannies and hate video games. Coincidence? Plus, where is the evidence and research which backs up the accepted idea that wanting to change your gender is not a mental illness?
psychology is closer to fucking magic than it is science lol
If for you psychology = Freud, Jung
then you are right.
But if you consider psychology= Pavlov, Skinner
then you are bullshitingly wrong.
.
Now you have to choose.
True! Plus an awful lot of those people get paid piss poor.
For instance, the New York Institute of Basic Research pays less than the Department of Sanitation. Keep in mind that the institute is STATE FUNDED.
Nobody wants to take them seriously unless they've been involved in some trauma and need guidance. That's all heaare good for, except for those with serious afflictions (i.e. schizophrenia).
Homosexuality (this applies to transgendered) was classified as a mental illness in the DSM-5 back in the 60s. IT HAS NEVER BEEN DECLASSIFIED. It is merely suppressed and no longer publically spoken on
>I actually have great conversational skills and lack obsessions.
one-dimensional generic understanding of autism does not mean you don't have it
Where did it say anything about IQ and Aptitude testing? Brain elasticity? All of the things which literal businesses, school, and colleges use and build foundations on? It doesn't say anything about those and it will not say anything about those.
I don't mean to be rude, but if I may ask, what was is your IQ?
>It CAN and HAS BEEN replicated
>Doesn't specifically state what has been replicated.
Read the paper dumbass
>Attempt to replicate 100 studies sourced from three reputable journals
>Only 36 percent of replications had significant results
As far as brain elasticity...that is more into neuroscience and biology territory. And as far as IQ tests...researchers DO have questions regarding how meaningful results are.

Stay mad that you can't find a good job with your psychology degree like I did with my STEM degree.

REAL SCIENCE CONFIRMED, I ADMIT DEFEAT
nigga its a pseudo science that has no proof.
I came back from Iraq ten years ago and they put me on three medicines. Nothing helped the fact i wanted to shoot up a Walmart. Then I realized i was just mad at the fact I chose to be put in a situation where I killed farmesr and shop keepers.
The meds dont help...
Go get some real help and guess what? I dont walk into Walmart and want to kill anyone. I want to get corn and soap.
Fuck the Service and youll be fine.
psychology is just taken by people too shit at maths to do economics
I would suggest you read up on Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem. There is no way to objectively study oneself (event Freud realized this, but continued on anyway). The entire field is bunk and completely subjective.
If your last part, is in reference to my post where I stated “Memes, as defined by Richard Dawkin is included in Psychology”.
you’re only making yourself look even more stupid.
MEMES, as Richard defined, is the passing of information & culture from one mind to another. MEMES have been around for millennia, but only after the internet came about has its power been pushed passed what it has ever been capable of.
We meme’d a damn president for god’s sake. why don’t you look into what MEMES are (by true definition. not by internet standards) before opening your mouth. In a PSYCHOLOGY thread, no less
no it isnt
it was invented by jewish german who wanted to fuck his own mother, and it all goes around that
let me say a second thing. I went to months for (((psychiatry))) after 4 deployments and it was always my fault. IF I had only been stronger to hill those 14 year old kids id be a hero.
Joined after 9/11 to save the world. Ended up being the enemy i hated.
Freud was a fucking crackpot.
>"children want to kill their fathers and commit incest with their moms because of jealousy"
This. Although there are genuine mental disorders, many providers would rather prescribe pills instead of bitch slapping someone and telling them to get their shit together; Instead of confronting your problems head on, they tell you that you are a victim of your own brain chemistry. Glad you got your shit together user.
My biggest problem with viewing it as a science is that most studies lack repeatability. If it has repeatable results though and a p value under .05 then it's a legit study. The vast majority of psychological studies don't even include heavy statistical analysis because the p values would prove the findings weren't significant.
OK, so what? Maybe IQ testing isn't accurate, but you still can't deny that without psychology, we wouldn't know half of what we do now. Also at least now we know memory, reasoning, and verbal skills contribute to intelligence which we wouldn't have known without the IQ testing building a foundation for it.
M’kay. Then explain mkultra enlighten one. Oh and let’s not forget the countless neuroscientist who have explained the scientific proof that psychologist have discovered through understanding human behavior.
This level of REACH is pure retardation.

Literally an institutionalized repeater. These are liberals who think they are so much smarter than everyone else because the can regurgitate everything they are taught like good goys. You should have asked her about cognitive dissonance because she sure as fuck was experiencing it when you brought up the pedo analogy.
When you have an anointed priest class (APA) that can change what is considered "fact" arbitrarily you're not dealing with a science, you've created a religion.
My psychology degree is a bachelor of the arts and not a bachelor of science. I learned the hard way that psychology is a junk science. One of my professors even warned me not to pursue psychology as a graduate student because it will be a dead filed by the middle of the century due to advancements in neuroscience. Many students he told this to (psych students are nearly all women) got angry when he said this. Many made it a point to find him years later after getting a masters in psych to tell him he was right.
Also, psychology was founded by the Jews and is largely controlled by them today. A boomer I knew from the field talked about how she and her dad (a psych professor) had gone to all sorts of conferences in the Soviet Union. Communist exploit it for a reason, the only method of deciding what is wrong with you is observation and educated guesses.
A different woman boomer professor of mine talked about how when she left the Midwest to practice clinically in Oregon how shocked she was by the shrinks out there. Most of them will openly say that psychology is an art and not a science. During clinical psychology training my professor told us how having the same three symptoms which almost everyone has can get someone virtually any diagnosis in the DSM.
It's not science, it's a godless Jew-created religion. Implicit bias, AKA everyone is born with racial prejudice and only through indoctrination can you unlearn it, is at its core. It exists to stigmatize and control. There is a reason why it is used on veterans, they want to disarm combat vets when they come home because the government knows they are a threat if they try and do away with the Constitution.
depends on what you mean by ‘psychology’ - it’s a label that covers a wide range of topic areas, study methods, etc.
Freud and psychoanalytic theory - arguably not science at all
Neuropsych - hard science.
