ty a lot, you worked that out very well.
For me, it was always clear that large parts of psychologic research are indeed a science, as they use the scientific method to gain knowledge.
The question for me is rather: is it a natural science or more a social science? And I think it depends a lot on which sub-field of psychology you are looking - especially those closely connected to neurology qualify as natural science.

Agreed, a lot of the research can be more natural science, historical science, observable science. The interpretations, the extensions, can be social, religious, as in external to the core of the nature of how science is to be tested, conducted.
haha, true! I have a habit of asking questions and then automatically starting to think on them more intensely...and sometimes an answer comes to me while asking the question.^^
I say that is a great habit! 😊
