The Significance of Psychological Sciences? Editorial (original) (raw)

Many people I know don't really question why they or other people behave the way that they do, why they feel how they feel (meta-emotions), why they relate to others the ways that they do (social perception and cognitions), or why the same patterns play out again and again in people's lives. To think psychologically, to me is to draw links with what has been learnt from early experiences or relationships in the past, what the antecedents and consequences are to behavior, what triggers particular feelings or behaviors.We can constantly sought to put more psychology in our lives and more life in our psychology( Lemma, 2005, Zimbardo, 2004).
