Not completely true. For example, ethics is a subject that is still primarily philosophical. And it is a useful and important subject.
In what context? As far as social interaction outside a lab sure, but as far as finding answers to scientific fact, observation, data collecting, control groups and peer review are still the top tool.
Psychology, psychiatry and neurology are the best way to study how humans behave.
