re: Calling all Psychologists, Physicists, Engineers, etc

Some categories of people have the inside line on manipulating the examination though. Those who have been down the same road a couple few times and pretty much know precisely what to expect beforehand; and probably lawyers. Lol

Absolutely, all paranoid schizophrenics are amazing actors.

Maybe they're not lying. Maybe they're just acting. The world has good actors does it not?

Not good enough to consistently mimic the symptoms of schizophrenia.

So, there is big money giving 13 year olds being 13 year olds methamphetamine during puberty?

Thank you for explaining it scientifically.

Have those scientific engineers and physicists rise to their fullest potential in their science without deep understanding of human leadership, behavior, thinking, and emotions…

Best wishes having Physics solely answer some of the big questions of human experience such as happiness, depression, motivation, memory, attention, personality traits, organic brain disorders, etc and bonus questions around why humans would ever participate in a genocide (we malleable bags of chemistry), for historical changing example.

If gravity, electromagnetism, time, and space were the only things to explain your personal relationships, there would be far fewer divorces, therapy costs, and Xanax pills.

I think over 70% of psychology experiments can’t be replicated.

Water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius. This is universal (happens everywhere, has happened to beginning of time, presently, and will happen into future).

Your decision to study Chemical Engineering (factors such as your personality, cognitive wiring, motivation for things like money/status/solving ChemE problems/etc) are more contextual than universal. Positivism struggles to reduce human experience to explain it.

Ironic really in the context of OP’s post.

Not yet. I think over 70% of psychology experiments can’t be replicated. Might be higher - I can’t remember the number. Non-replication is higher than one would think in the hard sciences, but psychology is way worse.

Perhaps it is not the “science” of psychology that is so bad, but the pressure to publish and a lack of integrity in the field leads to the manufacture of fraudulent data and misinterpretation of the data they do get.

Lee Jussim has done a ton of work trying to highlight the failures of Social Sciences at the moment (re: replication problem).

Yes it is. It’s a theoretical science, but it’s a science.
American Psychological Association would be the governing body.

For anybody that thinks these mental disorders are fabricated, come walk a few days in my shoes and have a conversation with somebody who thinks they can physically levitate in meditation or the person who believes that angels touch them and speak to them because they are a messiah.

It is one of the strangest feelings I’ve ever felt having somebody explain to me an entirely delusional belief and not being able to break that delusion at all. Stuff is very real and very concerning.

Okay the law of Stockholm Syndrome. Got it.
