Do we learn more about human life and personality from novels compared to scientific psychology?

Is it possible that the story in novels is depicted from reality thus giving the life and personality of the characters a touch of reality, even though writers sometimes exaggerate for dramatic purposes?

    There was a girl that read everything she could get her hands on and it was every kind of book the how to book to novels to science. She was in her senior year of high school and started to hang out at some of the most popular places and when it came it interacting with the people she said I thought I had all the answers the everything I read all the books.

    The point is that you can only get guide lines from books when it comes down to the real meal deal life has its way of changing what the books say because books are only one persons way of looking at things. you need to look at all sides before you can make a real decision.

    It is possibel but we must remember and know when it is time to seperate the novel from reality. Children have to be taught the difference, as young adults we should know but sometimes even we forget, take the Va tech tragedy, where and when did he stop seperating reality from the game in his mind that was playing out. Most of the time everything works out but when it goes bad its really bad.
