The statement is true. Psychology is considered a science owing to the fact it implements a systematic method of asking and answering questions. The thing is that is not defined as a social or natural one, it falls within a grey are that have both sides characteristics, it dabbles in both social and natural aspect of it. The natural part, its foundations, is the deal psychology has with neuroscience and experiments to discover laws. The social part is seen in the probabilistic explanations grounded on the analysis of statistical correlations and their match with convinced theoretical models.
