Laypeople miss-understand something, then blame the psychologist for their own miss-understanding.
Sounds like you and a lot of comments here.
- snapcaster 3y agoEvery single notable experiment I was taught about in Psychology class has shown to not be reproducible at all. What am I misunderstanding?
- FrustratedMonky 3y agoYou're missing the part of science where you analyze the results, ask yourself why it isn't reproducible, maybe because of some other variables that changed, or variables that were unknown, then re-hypothesizing, creating new models, re-formulating the studies, and doing it all again until they are re-producible. Since Psychology is about humans, and how they respond, then it is possible to have Psychology studies about Psychology studies, and study why humans are biased, why are studies biased, and control for those factors. Because a subject is difficult doesn't mean toss it all out the window. "shucks this stuff is hard, darn, guess it's all BS".
