Biology and psychology should not be in the same sentence. Only one is a real science.
If you meant "scientific community" then I have no issues. I was reacting to all the "The Science is settled!" articles during the pandemic by people from outside it.
- BenFranklin100 3y agoHa. You have far too high opinion of the field of biology. Go look at the current Dana Farber mess.

Human psychology is a messy business, but when research is conducted earnestly and rigorously according to the scientific method then it is science by definition. You can find a discipline problematic and unworthy of your interest without actively gatekeeping it, by the way.

When their "experiments" generally don't replicate, then it's not a science. Maybe similar to Colbert's word "truthy," what psychologists do is sciencey.
