You can't read or what? He says he's familiar with quantum mechanics literature and psychology literature, not exactly common is it? I have a CS PhD, so I know

You can't read or what? He says he's familiar with quantum mechanics literature and psychology literature, not exactly common is it? I have a CS PhD, so I know enough about research thanks. What do you have? Some nonsensical crap about how psychology is growing or whatever so forgive them lol.

Here is the quote so you can read it again. >"I've done my degree in an obscure subfield of quantum mechanics" Guess I'm wondering why his 'degree in un-related field and have read some psychology', is not as valid as your 'some degree in un-related field, and have read some psychology'. Or do you think your CS PhD came with more psychology course work than his quantum mechanics degree? You might need some Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. There are a lot of studies that show it works.

  Here we go, learn to read and understand before you make some useless reply buddy. Now I see why you think psychology isn't a complete mess of a field.

    Sorry. I made the Cognitive Behavior comment because I thought it would be funny to reference 'studies' in a field you disagree with, to help you with your problems dealing with the same field. Anyway, good luck on the anger issues. Not sure who you will see since Psychologist are off the table. Maybe meditation? Lot of good meditation studies coming out lately.

      You are good at posting annoying replies, I'll give you that lol. Other than that not so much.

        Yeah, this is my first time posting on any social media platform. I've found subtle trolling to be fun. But, also, addictive in an un-health way, which has given me some more perspective on why the country has gone a little crazy in last 5-10 years. So, good to experience it, but will probably stop, maybe delete account altogether. Hope you read rest of thread. I think a few people gave much better answers on the split between different Psychological fields, and why perceptions of the field are skewed. I do think there is an argument that Psychology (as the study of the mind), can also study how humans respond, and are biased in Psychological studies, and how the people running a study can also be biased, hence the field as a whole can become better at performing studies. Or another way, by studying why studies aren't replicating, we can also form better models to improve future studies. Basically, examine why measurements are wrong, form a new hypothesis, and measure again, and eventually form what this thread would call 'scientific' findings. Basically follow the scientific process, and not just get angry that results are not replicating and toss out the whole field. When physics doesn't replicate, they figure out why, there are follow up studies, re-formulations. We don't just cancel all of physics.
