Psychology is the scientific study of behavior and mental processes. Seeing through a psychological lens helps us to understand the unique perspective everyone brings to understanding and interacting with their world. A psychological perspective simultaneously sheds light on the innumerable commonalities each human being shares. By applying a scientific and systematic study of the individual we can develop a wider, deeper, and more useful perspective of ourselves and others.
