b. we use language borrowed from other disciplines
c. language names key concepts

All humans are unique individuals
2. Human sciences can never make accurate predictions with which to test theories
3. you cannot generate laws because the objects are always moving- there are no constants
4. cannot measure social data in numerical forms
5. An experimenter can change the thing he is trying to investigate
6. social issues cannot be studied like sciences
7. values are normative as well as positive

Some of the sciences that qualify as human sciences include: psychology, sociology, anthropology, etc. All of these can be used to better understand human behavior, and this new understanding can help rectify some unethical behavior that still continues in society. For instance, Elizabeth Loftus has been researching memory for decades, and her research on how easily memories can be altered with leading questions has made people question the accuracy of eyewitness testimony. Because of this research, it has been discovered that hundreds of people were falsely accused and charged with crimes that they didn't commit.]]> 2017-02-10 18:25:18 UTC https://padlet.com/elisenugent16/7wiioxocwmmh/wish/153141595 slothyyyy https://padlet.com/elisenugent16/7wiioxocwmmh/wish/153142479 The opinions of other human scientists, generally spread through journals, are important tools to make knowledge. ]]> 2017-02-10 18:28:07 UTC https://padlet.com/elisenugent16/7wiioxocwmmh/wish/153142479 elisenugent16 https://padlet.com/elisenugent16/7wiioxocwmmh/wish/153505283 1.
