Describe the differences between pseudoscience and scientific psychology
What will be an ideal response?
A good answer will include the following key points.
• Pseudoscience also confirms our existing beliefs and prejudices, whereas scientific psychology often challenges them.
• Unlike pop psychology, scientific psychology is based on research and empirical evidence, which is gathered by careful observation, experimentation, and measurement. It is therefore more complex, more informative, and far more helpful in its explanations than is popular psychology.
