To be honest it just looks like an information gathering exercise to me.
Gathering extra-sensory information, using averages and assimilating data to find a resemblance of truth..
I don't think there's anything scientific about it, but it would be interesting none-the-less.
Like i said, it resembles a social science form. The description you give is a classic social science process. Some physical scientists denigrate the work of social scientists, but in my opnion, they use scientific method to establish different truths and investigate different things. Their work is both as valid and as important as that of physical scientists, but complementary to it.
You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world..
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.
