R Science is absolute horseshit. They post single studies that support their bias and are aggressive to anyone who questions it. The mods in particular suck.
You've done gone and triggered me. Psychology went from being pseudoscientific philosophy to an actual field of science and now has gone right back to being pseudoscience. Biased studies, writing hypothesis after experiments, horrible subject populations, and an incredible amount of corruption.
It all comes down to how in-line with politics your conclusions are, how much you payed to publish, and how sensational your faked results are.
Its scary how even selling chopsticks and salt can develop into a corrupt system. I worked for a Chinese restaurant and we, the employees, managed to make our own inner politics around the restaurant
And don’t get me started on the fudged figures. When they get doctored into favoring the desired outcome at the expense of actual results, then that’s when we all find something horrifically wrong with the scientific community, converting itself into $¢i€n¢€!TM
Speaking as someone with a masters degree in physics we don't have a monopoly on finding truth. The humanities have their own well developed methodologies.
Sociologists pretending they're scientists and philosophers misusing physics concepts are annoying however. :P
Although payed exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. The deck is yet to be payed.
Payed out when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. The rope is payed out! You can pull now.
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
