Should Science Be Considered A Science

There are many different concepts of science and what may be a science. It is defined as the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment. In science, scientific methods are used to make sure an accurate, reliable and consistent data are constructed by scientists collectively and over time. It has aims for prediction, understanding, and control which must be followed through with specific processes for something to be considered science. Consequently, many argue whether the human science, the study and interpretation of the experiences, activities, and artifacts associated with human beings, should be considered a science
Psychology may be able to do studies and find supportive research. However absolute true results can never really be found and can be affected by other factors and disproved at any moment. Moreover, by the use of falsifiability, if something is not true, it is true; it can be proven by oppositely proving it. Accordingly to Popper he provided an argument that the hypotheses that can be falsified are the most optimum ones. For example his well known Popperian hypothesis, “All swans are white". How do we know for sure that we will not see a black, green or hot pink swan in the future? Therefore even if there has never been a sighting of a non-white swan, we still haven't really proved our hypothesis. Psychology is not capable of this which again provides an argument against Psychology as a
Nonetheless, psychological explanations are often very restricted and valid for only specific times and places. Most of the studies study the different schemas of specific people which cannot be narrowed down to one person. The cultural changes and social effects, for example, can change the results like behavior or information.
Lastly, there has always be an issue of ecological validity in Psychology. Ecological validity of a study means that the methods, materials and setting of the study must approximate the real-world that is being examined. Usually experiments have direct correlations like X causing Y but this is considered deterministic which is only shows one side of the world and does not take different approaches or possibilities. There are so many variables that are influential making the deterministic approach not reliable and inefficient. Making us rise the question
