There was always Asimov's psychohistory. A more recent addition would be cliology from Michael Flynn's works In the Country of the Blind[i] and [i]Eifelheim. Googling it makes an study and I'm not sure if Flynn coined it or if he co-opted an existing word (and discipline). To me psychohistory was more of an engineering discipline and cliology observational.
