Description
Psychology is the study of the mind and of behavior. Simply put, psychologists study the mental experiences and behavior of people and other animals. For the most part the emphasis is on the study of an individual during his lifetime. The study of large groups of people and the changes occurring in animals over successive generations is left to other sciences.
In a very real sense, there is no one psychology, there are many. Perhaps the name of the field should be changed to "psychological sciences" to describe more adequately the diversity of approaches and interests found among psychologists.
