[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 4471198, member: 710"] Chemistry started with statistics, IIRC. Putting varius ingredients together and measure what happens, eventually figuring out relationships between masses and elements. So does psychology. There are also areas where psychology and biology (neurology) are combined and give us insights into the real thought processes. Also, psychology on a larger/generalized scale also seems to work to some extent - cognitive theories that explain how people learn, or how people react to user interfaces (physical or digital), reaction of groups of people, and so on. There is still a lot unexplored, and I wouldn't count on psychiatrists analyzing your brain waves and neuro-transmitters in an average session, but that's something we might end with in a few decades. ;) It is definitely science.
