002 | What is Psychology? | Why We Do What We Do
What to Expect
In this episode, Abraham and RYANO start at the beginning with the question of "What is Psychology?" Given that psychology is a very term-driven field, terms often need to be unpacked since they don't necessarily always mean what they mean when we use them day-to-day. Questions that they ask include:
Does psychology apply to everyone or everything?
What's the mind, and where is it?
Can it be a science, or is it just a social science?
Does it require a context?
Is there room for the brain, or genes?
Is behavior only observable events?
What is cognition, and is it included in psychology?
