In modern science, psychology relates only or principally to conditions of the nervous system, and almost absolutely ignores the psychical essence and nature. Physicians denominate the science of insanity psychology, and name the lunatic chair in medical colleges by that designation. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/H._P._Blavatsky" class="mw-redirect" title="H. P.

Blavatsky</a>, <i>Isis Unveiled: A Master-Key to the Mysteries of Ancient and Modern Science and Theology</i>, Before the Veil, (1877)</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>Astrology is to exact astronomy what psychology is to exact physiology. In astrology and psychology one has to step beyond the visible world of matter, and enter into the domain of transcendent spirit. It is the old struggle between the <a href="/wiki/Platonic" class="mw-redirect" title="Platonic">Platonic</a> and <a href="/wiki/Aristotle" title="Aristotle">Aristotelean</a> schools, and it is not in our century of Sadducean skepticism that the former will prevail over the latter. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/H._P._Blavatsky" class="mw-redirect" title="H. P. Blavatsky">H. P. Blavatsky</a>, <i>Isis Unveiled: A Master-Key to the Mysteries of Ancient and Modern Science and Theology</i>, p. 259, (1877)</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>When psychology and physiology become worthy of the name of sciences, Europeans will be convinced of the weird and formidable potency existing in the human will and imagination, whether exercised consciously or otherwise. And yet, how easy to realize such power in spirit, if we only think of that grand truism in nature that every most insignificant atom in it is moved by spirit, which is one in its essence, for the least particle of it represents the whole; and that matter is but the concrete copy of the abstract idea, after all. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/H._P._Blavatsky" class="mw-redirect" title="H. P. Blavatsky">H. P. Blavatsky</a>, <i>Isis Unveiled: A Master-Key to the Mysteries of Ancient and Modern Science and Theology</i>, p. 384, (1877)</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>Neglected as <a class="mw-selflink selflink">psychology</a> now is, and with the strangely chaotic state in which physiology is confessed to be by its most fair students, certainly it is not very likely that our men of science will soon rediscover the lost knowledge of the ancients. In the days of old, when <a href="/wiki/Prophets" class="mw-redirect" title="Prophets">prophets</a> were not treated as <a href="/wiki/Charlatans" class="mw-redirect" title="Charlatans">charlatans</a>, nor thaumaturgists as impostors, there were colleges instituted for teaching <a href="/wiki/Prophecy" title="Prophecy">prophecy</a> and <a href="/wiki/Occultism" title="Occultism">occult sciences</a> in general. Samuel is recorded as the chief of such an institution at Ramah; Elisha, also, at Jericho. The schools of hazim, prophets or seers, were celebrated throughout the country. <a href="/wiki/Hillel" class="mw-disambig" title="Hillel">Hillel</a> had a regular academy, and <a href="/wiki/Socrates" title="Socrates">Socrates</a> is well known to have sent away several of his disciples to study manticism. The study of <a href="/wiki/Magic_(supernatural)" title="Magic (supernatural)">magic</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Wisdom" title="Wisdom">wisdom</a>, included every branch of science, the <a href="/wiki/Metaphysical" class="mw-redirect" title="Metaphysical">metaphysical</a> as well as the physical, psychology and physiology in their common and occult phases, and the study of <a href="/wiki/Alchemy" title="Alchemy">alchemy</a> was universal, for it was both a physical and a <a href="/wiki/Spiritual" class="mw-redirect" title="Spiritual">spiritual</a> science. Therefore why doubt or wonder that the ancients, who studied nature under its double aspect, achieved discoveries which to our modern <a href="/wiki/Physicists" class="mw-redirect" title="Physicists">physicists</a>, who study but its dead letter, are a closed book? <ul><li><a href="/wiki/H.P._Blavatsky" class="mw-redirect" title="H.P.

It has no place for the natural superiority of the philosophic life, and no understanding of education. So children who are impregnated with that psychology live in a sub-basement and have a long climb just to get back up to the cave, or the world of common sense, which is the proper beginning for their ascent toward wisdom. They do not have confidence in what they feel or what they see, and they have an ideology that provides not a reason but a rationalization for their timidity. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Allan_Bloom" title="Allan Bloom">Allan Bloom</a>, <i><a href="/wiki/The_Closing_of_the_American_Mind" title="The Closing of the American Mind">The Closing of the American Mind</a></i> (1987), p. 121</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>There is one view that we can allow these <a href="/wiki/AI" class="mw-redirect" title="AI">AI</a> [tools] to deal with data and analytics and we let people deal with the <a href="/wiki/Caring" class="mw-redirect" title="Caring">caring</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Empathy" title="Empathy">empathy</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Emotional" class="mw-redirect" title="Emotional">emotional</a> aspects of <a href="/wiki/Care" class="mw-redirect" title="Care">care</a>, which I think is absolutely critical... What if technology is capable of high touch engagement? What if AI was also social and emotionally intelligent? For me when I talk about emotional engagement, it’s not just about great user experience with technology... It is about deeper human engagement to enable <a href="/wiki/Transformative" class="mw-redirect" title="Transformative">transformative</a> change in people’s lives... We have the world of design and we have the world of AI and right now those two aren’t built top of each other... But these have to come together.

University professors can tell their students nowadays that the moral standards of the past are only tribal tabus, and a goodly number devote themselves to pulling habits out of rats. <ul><li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Bush" class="extiw" title="w:Douglas Bush">Douglas Bush</a> in a lecture <i>Life, Letters and Education</i> given at Smith College (Nov 13 1941) and Wellesley College (Dec 2 1941), Massachusetts.

These pre-scientific theories doubtless contained insights which still surpass in refinement those depended upon by psychiatrists or psychologists today. But who knows, among the many brilliant ideas offered, which are the true ones? Some will claim that the statements of one theorist are correct, but others will favour the views of another. Then there is no objective way of sorting out the truth except through scientific research. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Raymond_Cattell" title="Raymond Cattell">Raymond Cattell</a> (1965). <i>The Scientific Analysis of Personality,</i> Baltimore, MD: Penguin, p. 14.</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>Unlike the physicist, the psychologist … investigates processes that belong to the same order — perception, learning, thinking — as those by which he conducts his investigation. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Morris_R._Cohen" class="mw-redirect" title="Morris R.

In other words, the second person covers over something of the first person; moreover, the second person can have so much influence that the first one appears different from what he is. Therefore a double accounting is necessary here; the observation must keep a special account of the influence the second person has on the person who is the object under observation through his personality, his characteristics, his virtues, and his defects. If you could manage to see someone shadowboxing in dead earnest, or if you could prevail upon a dancer to dance solo the dance he customarily dances with another, you would be able to observe his motions best, better than if he were boxing with another actual person or is he were dancing with another actual person. And if, in conversation with someone, you understand the art of making yourself no one, you get to know best what resides in this person. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Soren_Kierkegaard" class="mw-redirect" title="Soren Kierkegaard">Soren Kierkegaard</a> 1847 <i>Works of Love</i>, Hong 1995 p. 347</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li><b>Psychology is a very unsatisfactory science.</b> Comparing the vast body of systematised and recognised facts in <a href="/wiki/Physics" title="Physics">physics</a> with those in psychology one will doubt the advisability of teaching the latter to anybody who does not intend to become a professional psychologist, one might even doubt the advisability of training professional psychologists.

Multiple paths to estimating numerical point values ("consistency tests") are better, even if approximate with rough tolerances; and lacking this, ranges, orderings, 2nd-order differences, curve peaks and valleys, and function forms should be used.
