Psychology is the science of the soul. Psychologists gather information about people’s interests, abilities and behaviour in order to be able to understand, explain and predict their actions and interactions with other members of society, or how they are affected by their environment. They help individuals face the problems of daily living, how to handle stress, anxiety or conflict within themselves or towards others.
