"This goes 10X for such difficult sciences as psychology (which is literally still in infancy) and biology. In these fields, designing a proper experiment (controlling as much as you can) is basically impossible, so we have to tease signal out of noise and it's failure prone." For psychology replace "Difficult" with "Pseudo". To lose that tag, Psychology has to take a step back, do basic research, replicate that research multiple times, think about how to do replicatable new research, and only then start actually letting psychologists do new research to advance science. Instead of that, unreplicated pseudo-scientific nonsense psychology papers are being used to tell governments how to force us to live our lives. |
