Oh noes! A blog?!http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/the-curious-wavefunction/2013/08/13/is-psychology-a-real-science-does-it-really-matter/
"Now chemical definitions are still admittedly more accurate and quantifiable than definitions of happiness or satisfaction. But the point is that not everything measurable needs to be quantifiable to the sixth decimal point to call itself scientific. What matters is whether we can come up with consistent and at least semi-quantifiable definitions that are useful enough to make testable predictions. Psychological research is useful not when it’s quantifiable but when it says something about human nature that is universal and revealing." -American Scientific Article
"Or consider Daniel Kahneman’s seminal work in behavioral economics which has led to real insights into decision making and biases; very few people would call what he did unscientific." -American Scientific Article

Cos the couple years I studied it before I decided "this is bullshit" and bounced mean less than your blog.
You know what a Psychiatrist says to a Psychologist that "proves" something?
"You're not qualified to make that assessment".
