Blogs- Yahoo!

Well, at the beginning of this semester I believed Psychology to be the study of how different people think and their reactions. I still believe that, but it's a lot more than what I expected. Now I realize that Psychology encompasses pretty much everything about a person; how a person thinks, behaves, and feel in certain issues. Since I have reviewed chapter 1 I've noticed how in depth and scientific Psychology is. Psychology covers the details of aspects that we experience in life.
Personally, I think that Psychology affects my every day decisions. Every day I have to decide what I think is right or how I want to achieve in an activity. By this I'm making choices based upon how I was taught and raised to.
I learned about psychology's biggest issue; the nature-nurture issue, which I find interesting because it raises questions for not only me, but others as well. For instance, it makes me wonder if we develop traits through experience or are we born with them. Learning about Pyschology's founding was intriguing because now I know how the study of Psychology got its start.
