>>13572227Psychoanalysis is not a science. It's absolutely unscientific. Psychology on the other hand follows the scientific method. However, depending on the subfield in psychology reproducibility can be very low due to bad methodics and bad application of statistics. It is mainly a problem that occurs in social psychology. In fields such as cognitive psychology, the problem of low replication is not quite so pronounced, and attempts have been made in recent years to move closer and closer to the "hard sciences" in this area by using objective measures. At the institute where I work, there are a lot of physicists doing experimental psychology with the rigor of physics.
