Psychology
Psychology is the scientific study of the brain and its effects on behaviour. Psychology aims to describe and explain both the universality of human experience and individual and cultural diversity. It does this through the systematic study of behaviour, the processes that underlie it, and the factors that influence it. Through such study, students come to better understand themselves and their social worlds.
Stage 2 Psychology focuses on the knowledge and understanding of 6 key learning areas and the application of the ideas within these areas to the real world.
