psychology is a science and as such as is objective. it is a self-criticizing and reforming science that is dynamic and adapts to evidence that is available at a given time without neglecting the possibility of contrary evidence.

In science, evidence is any result of an experiment done with the scientific method. Evidence and experiments to acquire evidence are methods by which one can scientifically prove a claim.

To figure out formulas and equations and claculations to prove or add evidence to a theory.
Law and math prove things. Science supports tentative ( more or less ) explanations of natural phenomenon with evidence. The evidence overwhelmingly supports evolutionary theory. PS Evolution itself is a observed and observable fact.
Evidence is something observable (measurable) or tangible that provides support to an explanation or shows that the explanation needs to be modified. The term "prove" (in the US, generally) is much more often used within the legal system, not in science, as science doesn't really try to "prove" things, but to support or refute them with evidence. The more evidence, the more likely it is to be true. Evidence, by definition, cannot be non-scientific.

Given that psychology is essentially a study of psychic abilities and the paranormal, it proves difficult to be tested. Psychology is a science, requiring careful experimentation and research to truly justify any findings in its studies. Parapsychology has yet to show extraordinary, or for that matter, concrete evidence to justify existence of the paranormal, or for it to obtain any credibility as a true science.
