IF YOU'RE A HUMAN BEING,DO READ THIS POST =]
Learning Psychology have made me become a better person.
I've learnt so much from Culture,race,brain to dreams..
i'll be learning more though..
but what i've learnt so far have amazingly changed myself.
I can understand many things that many people can't..
there's nothing psycho about it.
there's nothing weird about it.
Just that many people find it weird is because they don't bother learning about it.
ALL THEY CARE IN LIFE IS THEMSELVES AND ONLY THEMSELVES.
as said in my school's website ;
Psychology is the study of people: how they think, act, react and interact. Psychology is concerned with all aspects of behavior and the thoughts, feelings and motivations underlying such behavior.
In a sense, you are already a psychologist: we all are. We are all interested in what makes people tick, and how this understanding can help us to solve major problems in society.If you tell your friends you are interested in psychology, common reactions might be ‘well can you tell what I’m thinking then?’ or ‘Psychology? That’s all just common sense isn’t it?’ Because we are so familiar with our own behavior we all have theories about it, which are often reflected in everyday sayings: ‘Absence makes the heart grow fonder’, or ‘too many cooks spoil the broth’. But what about ‘out of sight out of mind’, or ‘many hands make light work’? Common sense isn’t so simple after all.
The science of human behavior can give us a clearer picture. To study psychology you have to learn scientific methods: observing, measuring, testing, using statistics to show that what you find is reliable evidence and not just down to chance. But psychologists do not simply collect evidence to explain people’s behavior; they use their understanding to help people with difficulties and bring about change for the better. For example, psychologists are concerned with practical problems such as:
- How can we ease the effects of parental divorce on children?
- How should drug awareness campaigns frame their message?
- How can we minimize accidents; on roads, rails, in the air?
- How can the courts ensure that eyewitness testimony is reliable?
- How should people act on a date – what do others tend to find attractive?
- How can footballers keep their anger in check on the pitch?
- How can we help people overcome depression, stress or phobias?
- How do you best train a person to work with a guide dog?
- How can governments promote peace between warring nations?
- How can we speed recovery from brain injury?
- How can bosses stop strong leadership spilling over into bullying?
- How can teachers or lecturers ensure students are really learning?
Psychology is merely,EVERYTHING for you to stay alive =]
