Document Summary
If you have fantasies about kylie jenner that doesn"t provide any valuable info: science makes predictions, tests them, has hypotheses that can be proved wrong, and findings that can be generalized, case studies are not science. Dreams: freuds theory- dreams are involved in wish fulfillment and daily residue=focusing on something that is important at the time like your calculus exam tomorrow, modern theory= no consensus, memories, anxieties, suggestions, whatever. Witchdoctor fallacy: assume the effectiveness of a particular therapy is evidence in support of the therapist"s theory of the cause of the mental disorder and of the therapist"s expertise, hey, he cured me.
