Why are questions asked in the Psychology section hardly related to psychology at all?

Update:

On the contrary, this question is pretty related to the field of psychology. Although its more closely related to social psychology. In the sense of how people's self-definitions of psychology differ from each other, and what are the factors that influence these differences.

    People seem to have a misconception about psychology based on movies --- I'm so sick of dream interpretation questions because it is pop-psych and there never was any research supporting dream interpretation!

    It's happening in all sections, not just psychology.

    Some people just open their mouths and start typing without thinking of where they are.

    Your question isn't related to psychology either!

    it is an automatic interest so yahoo would not do something, they only set up this technique and go away it to the clientele to do what they do. in case you probably did not ask an entire question you would be able to get violated. in case you probably did not consult with the bible or approximately god or asked approximately religions then you quite'll probably get violated given that's what's in that class. So the word "spiritually" and writing approximately asking a query in Psychology do merely not adventure, so somebody would have violated you.

    Because most people don't know what Psychology is actually about so they just ask a silly question.

  • Your question too is not related to Psychology !

    This is a simple answer, some people are just morons and don't know what they're actually asking for.
