Preaching would be classified as a social science. The effects of preaching can be measured. A study was once conducted within a Church congregation on the effects of preaching, The eighty two participants were tested in five categories: knowledge, pseudo-behavior, an evaluation on the participant's act of worship, an evaluation of the preacher, and a semantic differential.
