P4wn4g3 05/22/17 3:14:37 AM #4:	Eh, I'd say it's a hard science. People argue that since it's mostly qualitative data that it isn't a hard science, but qualitative data goes a long way, especially when the scientific method is appropriately applied. And at any rate it's the most accurate way we have for classifying human behavior, which tends to make it much harder to quantify. --- For problems with the site, start here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/feedback/index.php?type=37 <cite>P4wn4g3 posted [p:879571117] in Is psychol...

Its a social science because it studies how people behave and interact with one another. Psychology is the study of the self; and sociology is the study of the group (for a better description). --- --- MaverickXeo --- <cite>MaverickXeo posted [p:879596859] in Is psychol...
