Psychology or psychology (literally "study or treatise on the soul"; from the classical Greek ψυχή, transliterated psykhé, "psyche", "soul", "mental activity", and λογία, logy, "treatise" or "study" ) is a profession and an academic discipline that, in general terms, is defined as the science that deals with the behavior and mental processes of individuals, whose field of study encompasses all aspects of the human experience. It should be noted that there are various psychological perspectives, each with its own theories and methodologies, and in comparison they can coincide, influence or even be contradictory and incompatible; this variety gives rise to multiple meanings and approaches. Likewise, there are arguments that cast doubt on the scientificity of psychology due to limitations such as: subjectivity, verifiability, ethical and philosophical dilemmas, and so forth. Even some approaches - such as humanism - do not consider psychology a science, rejecting determinism in favor of free will.

Through its various approaches, psychology explores concepts such as perception, attention, motivation, emotion, brain function, intelligence, thinking, personality, personal relationships, consciousness and unconsciousness. Psychology uses quantitative empirical research methods to analyze behavior. Other types of qualitative and mixed methods can also be found, especially in the clinical or consulting field. While psychological knowledge is frequently used in the evaluation or treatment of psychopathologies, in recent decades psychologists have also been used in the human resources departments of organizations, in areas related to child development and aging, sports , the media, the world of law and forensic sciences. Although most psychologists are professionally involved in therapeutic activities (clinical, consulting, education), a part is also dedicated to research, from universities, on a wide range of topics related to behavior and human thought.
