Psychology

Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behavior. It explores how individuals think, feel, and act, both individually and in groups. The discipline examines various mental processes, including perception, cognition, emotion, and motivation, as well as how these processes are influenced by biological, social, and environmental factors. Psychology encompasses a diverse range of subfields, such as clinical psychology, developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, social psychology, and neuropsychology, each focusing on different aspects of psychological functioning. It employs a variety of research methods, including experiments, surveys, and observational studies, to gather data and understand human behavior. The insights gained from psychology are applied in numerous areas, such as mental health treatment, education, organizational behavior, and public policy, aiming to enhance well-being and address psychological issues.
