No. It just means that you shouldn't do things to make other people believe that it is scientific.

Psychology is generally considered a science of sorts is it not? And it is certainly non-deterministic, and thus can't be verified like the deterministic majority of scientific matters.

Things don't need to be deterministic to be falsifiable.
