Course
Ph.D. Psychology as an academic discipline encompassing a wide range of studies including attention, perception, comprehension, emotions, intelligence, personality, relationships, behavior, and even the subconscious. Psychology is the study of the mind and behavior. Psychologists examine both individual behaviors and the behavior of groups, working towards understanding human activity, treating mental disorders, and counselling people to help them achieve emotional stability
Being concerned with social behavior, Psychology in many ways is related to the social sciences and humanities, such as Anthropology and Philosophy. They use similar research techniques as these disciplines, including conducting interviews and observing behavior. Psychologists assess behavioral and mental function and well-being, and study how human beings relate to each other and also to machines, and work towards improving such relationships.With the world everyday undergoing sizable change in terms of population and thought processes, they provide important knowledge and skills to help better understand diverse cultures and mindsets. Psychology essentially relies on very scientific methods, using carefully designed experiments to produce reliable data about behavior, emotions, and brain chemistry. Psychologists determine ways to test for emotional stability or mental illness and develop counseling techniques to encourage mental development, ease emotional pain, and promote healthy behavior.
