It is a remarkable indictment against the edicts of common sense that when seeking to divine the best way forward, many politicians and policy makers still put their faith in the garbled outpourings of soothsaying pollsters and op-ed oracles over scientific analysis.

I like psychology and social science so much that I added 2 introductory modules about it to my computer science course, but let's face it... a lot of studies fail at reproducibility test. ( http://www.nature.com/news/over-half-of-psychology-studies-fail-reproducibility-test-1.18248 ) and I think one of the problems is the same that hapened to Machine Learning/Predictive Analitics in the very beging ... it did not have enough data (sample) to test the hypothesis or the complexibility of social interactions are so big (P-NP probem?) that maybe only a very good ML model can cope with it. Regards terrorism.. my "opinion" (not a study) I suspect that to make a terrorist you need ... 1 - find an unfair situation where a group can create an ID, 2 - Add a hate speech to spot the ones with mental illness 3 - start the brainwashing 4 - give them resources ...
