INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGY.
What is psychology? How is it connected to biology? What’s the origin of the word? Read the definitions and try to explain in your own words.
Psycho- is a learned borrowing from Greek meaning breath, soul, spirit, and mind. In Greek mythology Psyche (soul or butterfly) was the human bride of Eros, the god of love. Before she is allowed to many Eros she is forced to undergo many difficult ordeals. Apuleius tells the story of Eros and Psyche in his Metamorphoses. Psychology was considered a study of the soul.

Psychology is 1) the science of the mind or of mental states and processes: the science of human nature: 2) the science of human and animal behaviour; 3) the sum of the mental states and processes of the person or of a number of persons, especially as determining action (e.g. the psychology of a soldier at the battle). Literally, the word psychology means the science of the mind. Most contemporary psychologists would define psychology as the science of the behaviour of organisms. By behaviour they mean activities and processes that can be observed objectively — both the isolated reactions of muscles, glands and other parts of the organisms and the organized, goal-directed patterns of reaction that characterize the organism as a whole. Psychologists also interpret behaviour to include internal processes — thinking, emotional reactions and the like — which one person cannot observe directly in another but which can be inferred from observation of external behaviour.

Behaviour is determined by a complex of factors that are partly biological, partly anthropological, partly sociological, and partly psychological. Therefore, psychology is closely connected to both the biological and the social sciences. Psychologists study basic functions such as learning, memory, language, thinking, emotions, and motives. They investigate development throughout mental and physical health care. They also treat people who are emotionally distressed.
