Psychology is the study of peoples social qualities and the properties of anyone personal identity. As I read in the text I think I found an accurate description of psychology to someone new to the concept described being; 'A vantage point for viewing a behavior or mental process'. Since psychology describes and explains behavior and the mind underlying that, it is used for many applications. As time goes on psychology changes throughout society. Where at first it may have been derived from philosophy and clinical research and evolved into more applicable disciplines like cognitive science. I believe psychology is the foundation of the way we extrapolate and make inferences about trends and is essential to forecasting future behavior. Moreover it is a complete field of its own, related to skill sets that are very much involved in observing and critically analyzing events related to intellect. Hopefully this clearly indicates my definition of the topic.
