Pseudoscience
consists of statements, beliefs, or practices that are claimed to be both scientific and factual but are incompatible with
the scientific method.
Indicators of possible Pseudoscience
● Use of vague, exaggerated or untestable claims;
● Over-reliance on confirmation rather than
refutation;
● Lack of openness to testing by other experts;
● Absence of progress; and
● Personalization of issues
● Use of misleading language/terms
