Annotations:

  • The science of psychology is the knowledge of human behaviour obtained through the scientific method. The scientific method involves: The use of experiments (i.e. the manipulation of the IV and objective measurements of DV, keeping other variables constant). Precise objective measurements (i.e. Accurate measurements free of subjective bias) Theories are falsifiable (i.e. Any theory can be tested through trial and error to see if its false)
