Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behaviour. It is about understanding people. It is about understanding yourself. Psychology as a subject is like a jigsaw, and each piece of the jigsaw represents a different type of psychology.
Psychologists have questions:
‘Why did people obey Adolf Hitler?”, “How is the human mind constructed?”, “What is the importance of early life to our personality as young people?”

Relationships which considers the factors that cause and maintain attraction and the theories of how relationships are formed and end

Forensic psychology where both biological and psychological explanations of offender behaviour are explored and how we deal with offending behaviour to try and reduce reoffending
