What is Psychology?
Psychology is the study of the way that the human mind comprehends things and the reactions that are studied for the purpose of understanding human nature. This study branches off into many, more specific categories such as Behavioral Psychology, Cross-Cultural Psychology, Social Psychology (Sociology), and other groups. These behaviors are studied carefully and all are associated with each other. They are put together in many different ways to better understand the way that we, as humans, think. One of the more common branches is Body Language, a branch of Sociology in which the unspoken interactions between humans through body language are studied and noted.
Throughout studying Psychology, you will see that over time, humans have changed common interactions and their perceptions decided by the personal boundaries of the person, cultural norms, and past experiences. These can vary due to many things, which makes psychology a complicated study. Most people can be "read" or understood through body language, and it has been said that over 80% of communications between people are unspoken and read or understood without consciously noticing them. Psychology is a very fascinating subject, and is also very challenging for a single person to understand. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross worked with her team of students to fully understand studies in mental dispositions and the stages of grief, developed in 1969.
