Psychological definition
edit
Psychology (English name) is a science that studies the occurrence, development and activity law of human and animal psychological phenomena. Psychology not only studies animal psychology (the main purpose of studying animal psychology is to deeply understand and predict the occurrence and development law of human psychology) but also studies human psychology, with human psychological phenomena as the main research object. Therefore, in a word, psychology is a science that studies psychological phenomena and psychological laws.
The word psychology comes from Greek, which means the science of the soul. Soul also means qi or breathing in Greek, because ancient people thought that life depended on breathing, and when breathing stopped, life ended. With the development of science, the research object of psychology has changed from soul to mind. It was not until the beginning of19th century that Herbart, a German philosopher and educator, first proposed that psychology is a science. Psychology and pedagogy originally belonged to the category of philosophy, and then they were separated from the infancy of philosophy. Scientific psychology not only describes psychological phenomena, but more importantly explains psychological phenomena and reveals the law of their occurrence and development.
Psychology is a science that studies the psychological phenomena, psychological functions and behaviors of people and animals. It is not only a theoretical discipline, but also an applied discipline. Including theoretical psychology and applied psychology.
Psychological research involves many fields such as perception, cognition, emotion, personality, behavior, interpersonal relationship and so on, and it is also related to many fields of daily life-family, education, health and so on. On the one hand, psychology tries to explain the basic behavior and psychological function of individuals with brain operation, and at the same time, psychology also tries to explain the role of individual psychological function in social behavior and social motivation; At the same time, it is also related to neuroscience, medicine, biology and other sciences, because the physiological functions discussed in these sciences will affect the mind of individuals.
Psychology is defined as the scientific study of behavior and psychological processes and how they are influenced by the physiological and psychological state of organisms and the external environment. )
Psychology is divided into five sub-fields, namely, neuroscience is imagination, developmental psychology is thinking, cognitive psychology is memory, social psychology is language, and clinical psychology is consciousness.
Simply put, neuroscience studies people's psychology by observing their brain reactions; Developmental psychology is a subject that studies how human beings grow, develop and learn. Cognitive psychology is to study psychology through computer methods, that is, to compare psychology to a computer to see how human beings play games, distinguish languages and identify objects. Social psychology is the study of human group behavior and how to communicate with people; Clinical psychology mainly studies mental health and mental illness. Psychology is mainly a course to help people's mental health.
