OBJECTIVE back to top

Psychology is the scientific investigation of mind and behaviour, the study of how people think, act, react and interact. Psychologists observe people in schools, workplaces and social environments in order to understand why people behave the way they do. Psychologists study how genes, age, background and environment influence the way we behave and how we make sense of what we perceive and experience.

Applied psychology is when an understanding of psychology is applied to real world problems, such as the workplace, entertainment, socialising, learning, even how we shop. Sport, health and even learning are made clearer through the application of psychological principles.

This program introduces the study of how psychology applies to everyday life.
