Psychology

Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behavior. It encompasses various subfields that explore cognitive processes, emotional experiences, social interactions, and individual differences. Psychologists examine how mental functions influence actions, how people perceive and relate to others, and how various factors, including biology, environment, and culture, affect behavior and mental health. The discipline employs both qualitative and quantitative research methods to understand psychological phenomena and inform practices in areas such as clinical psychology, counseling, educational psychology, and organizational behavior. Ultimately, psychology seeks to enhance our understanding of the mind and improve mental well-being.
