Psychology is science that studies the behavior and the human mind.
More specifically, psychology is a scientific approach to acquire knowledge through systematic and objective methods; psychologists study behavior – which refers to any action or reaction that can be measured or observed; psychologists study the mind – which refers to both conscious and unconscious mental states.
