Psychology is the scientific study of
mental processes and behavior.
Psychologists study things such as behavior, cognition, emotion, perception, and personality. Psychologists try to understand the basic functioning of both humans and animals by studying behavior and biology. Psychology is used to improve education, work productivity, help people with mental disorders, for marriage therapy, youth counseling, and much more.
