Psychology is a scientific study that uses empirical evidence to understand and explain human behavior, while false explanations of behavior are typically based on unfounded beliefs, personal opinions, or pseudoscience.

It is not accurate or ethical to label specific research in abnormal psychology as "false."

Pseudo psychology refers to beliefs or practices that are presented as being based on psychological principles, but lack scientific evidence or validity. It often involves using techniques or claims that are not supported by mainstream psychology or research. Examples include astrology, phrenology, and some types of personality assessments.
