Psychology is a field of study that studies the workings of the mind and behavior, examining how biological influences, social pressures, and environmental factors interact to shape our thoughts, emotions, and actions.Footnote1 Psychology aims to provide insight into behaviors to help us better understand ourselves and those around us. With a better understanding of how our mind works, we can stimulate better decision-making and build healthier relationships with each other and with our environment.Footnote2 This multi-faceted discipline encompasses many different subfields, including the cognitive sciences, neurosciences, social psychology, clinical psychology and developmental psychology. Psychologists can use their knowledge to diagnose and treat mental health disorders and provide relief to people with depression, anxiety, and other emotional issues.
