Psychology is the study of behavior and mental processing. It is a science, because it follows the scientific curriculum to conduct its research and findings. You know, Collection of Data, Hypothesis, Conclusion...leading to Theories.

I know this one! I know this one! Some sub-specialities of psychology such as psychopharmacolgy are equivalent to chemistry and physics. psychologists are taught how to design experiements for other scientists and are responsible for controlling variables and rendering an analysis (the scientific method). That alone puts psychology at the forefront of science. of course psychology is science. I would love to take psychology in college but I know I'm not smart enough. you have to be a genius. psychology has a very dark side too though. very dark. psychologists are experts at confusing people.

Yes, since it's the study of the mind and asks the question of how it works, it is indeed a science.
