Sorry, but the public social sciences are dead anyway. If you want to do research on humanity you go were the actual data is. FGN. Everything else is peanuts.

  What is FGN?

    I think it's "Facebook/Google/Netflix."

      That makes sense. Big Tech in general has data on billions.

      NSA. Assume you have the conversation of billions. Its pretty easy to design "Virtual experiments", that just play out or have played out as life plays out. Select from Everyone //Filter the Environment with constraint to avoid polution where(Person.isAlcoholic and Person.Age.inRange(12,49)) //Define experimental condition experimentOutcome(State.Change(Person.isAlcoholic) upon Person.Graph.Depth(1).Death) Gets you all acoholics quitting after death of a nearby relative. That way, you get almost pure data and archieve what neuro sciences and psychology could never dream off. To really know people better then they even ever knew themselves. So sad, as this is "steering" technology, we will never get to see it. We do not even get to contemplate its existence.
