Psychology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Psychology is an academic and applied discipline involving the scientific study of mental processes and behavior. Psychology also refers to the application of such knowledge to various spheres of human activity, including problems of individuals' daily lives and the treatment of mental illness.

Psychology differs from the other social sciences — anthropology, economics, political science, and sociology — in seeking to explain the mental processes and behavior of individuals. Psychology differs from biology and neuroscience in that it is primarily concerned with the interaction of mental processes and behavior on a systemic level, as opposed to studying the biological or neural processes themselves. In contrast, the subfield of neuropsychology studies the actual neural processes and how they relate to the mental effects they subjectively produce. Biological psychology is the scientific study of the biological bases of behavior and mental states.

The word psychology comes from the ancient Greek ψυχή psyche ("soul," "mind") and -λογία -ology ("study").

Re: Psychology
If in some cases someone can see dead people, if it is real, what kind of "matter"(I dont know the right word) did they can see, is it really a ghost wearing clothes because media presents ghost wearing something or some stories says they has their clothes in them, how can it be possible?

weird....hmmmm...To see is to believe,...... For prof. psychologist, and those who can see ghost, what do a ghost look like, does ghost maintains their human appearance I mean their figure.? are they really wearing clothes...what?

Re: Psychology
so then what you are saying is that either what i am seeing is my own image in the mirror, which in this case, isn't the case, or that my own soul is unsettled like a dead guy roaming within plain sight...in that case, if there is no mirror to be had to check, still leaves the question, if someone sees dead people, and then sees themselves, which one is really dead, of course assuming that dead people see us but don't often interfere...

"If I see dead people, and then I see myself, how will I know which one of us is truly the dead one?"

Re: Psychology
Can you see yourself in the mirror?  If you can't then you are truly dead. If you can see your reflection you are only being visited by those unsettled souls.
