How is psychology as a scientific discipline similar to the casual observations you make about the world in everyday life?
Psychology as a scientific discipline differs from casual observations in that it requires scientific research to gather observations about a certain topic. Research Psychologists use the scientific method to design experiments to observe the topic at hand. The scientific method has six steps: form a hypothesis, determine how the research will be measured, develop a detailed procedure of how the experiment will be performed, gather participants who are applicable to the study, observe and analyze the data that was gathered during the experiment, and conclude what the findings were in the experiment.(according to Psychology 6th edition) Psychology would not be where it is today, if researchers did not perform scientific experiments and other research techniques. It is not possible for a psychologist to begin to fully understand one's mind and behaviors with out some sort of a scientific research. Despite this, Psychology as a scientific discipline is similar to casual observations that we make about every day life. When a research Psychologist performs an experiment, as described in the one of the last steps to the scientific method, they compare the observations obtained in their experiment to casual observations in everyday life. One of the main goals of a research Psychologist is to better understand why people behave a certain way. Karli Mangold
How do psychologists use the scientific method to study behavior and mental processes?
1. Identify a problem and formulate hypothesis2. Design experiment using dependent and independent variables -3. Perform experiment using experimental and control groups -4. Evaluate hypothesis (maybe reformulate corrected hypothesis and replicate data) -5. Communicate results
What are the organized and logical approaches to scientifis reearch called?
The organized and logical approaches to scientific research are called the scientific method. This method involves systematic observation, measurement, and experimentation to gather evidence and test hypotheses in order to answer questions and advance scientific knowledge.
Is not an assumption that is critical to the Scientific Method?
One critical aspect of the Scientific Method is the reliance on empirical evidence and observations rather than assumptions. Assumptions can introduce bias and inaccuracies into the scientific process, which is why scientists strive to rely on data and testable hypotheses instead.
The approach psychologists use to acquire information about behavior in a systematic fashion is called?
The approach psychologists use to acquire information about behavior in a systematic fashion is called scientific method. The scientific method involves forming hypotheses, conducting experiments, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions based on evidence. It helps ensure that psychological research is conducted in a rigorous and systematic manner.
What does the scientific mathod mean?

What is the variable in the scientific method?
a scientific method to tell what stayed the same in an experiment
The scientific method is flexible and can be used in different ways depending on the experiment?
Because the scientific method has to adapt to what the experiment is
Why is Redi's experiment considered the first true scientific experiment?
it was the first experiment that followed the scientific method
Do the independent and dependent variables go under experiment on the scientific method?
Independent and dependent does go under experiment on the scientific method.
