Overview

"The scientific study of mind and behaviour is known as psychology. It is derived from the Greek words psyche, meaning ""breath, spirit, soul,"" and logia, meaning ""study of."" The modern field of psychology did not always exist. Although, as the great psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus put it, the field has a brief history but a lengthy tradition, it is still thought of as a youthful discipline. The field of psychology has rapidly expanded to become extremely influential in modern society. Many different types of organisations and settings employ psychologists, including public and private schools, mental health centres, government agencies, and private practices. From researching and treating mental illness to shaping public health policy, their responsibilities are vast and varied. A large number of psychologists actually do not have any employment related to mental health. Consulting, research, and instruction are all part of the broader field of psychology. Psychologists work in many different fields, including mental health, but they also assist athletes in developing mental toughness and focus, assist in the creation of safe and practical products, and teach companies how to influence customers. Psychology is more than only a field practiced at universities and mental health clinics. You can observe the principles of psychology in several everyday settings. Each and every one of the advertisements you see on TV and in the newspaper use psychological research to craft persuasive sales pitches. The websites that you use often use psychological research on human reading, usage, and interpretation of online content."
