Psychology (BA)

University of Washington

Psychology is the study of human and animal behavior and the psychological, social, and biological process related to that behavior. As a science, psychology seeks to describe, measure, predict and understand behavior. The primary focus is explaining individual, rather than collective, similarities and differences. Some of the vital concepts for understanding behavior include biological capacity, skill, socialization, knowledge and motivation. As a profession, psychology seeks to apply knowledge in order to interpret human experiences, predict and develop human capability, and improve people’s ability to interact effectively with the physical and social environment.
