What Makes Psychology Science
2. Psychology Begins
December 1879, professor, Wilhelm Wundt created psychology.
Meaning to measure atoms of the mind, Wundt ended up creating the
first psychology experiment.
Before long, this was known as a science organized into different
branches, or schools of thought.
3. Question?
What is psychology to you?
Do you picture a psychiatrist sitting in a room listening or
discussing with a client.
Or do you see men in lab coats watching rats run around in a
maze?
Well we are about to discover how psychology & science are
blended together.
4. What is Science
Science is a branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of
facts or truths.
Or systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained
through observation and experimentation.
Science has theories, tests, hypothesis.
Sounds familiar ey?
5. Whats psychology?
Characteristics of the mental states and processes of a person or
class of a person; or of the mental states and processes involved
in a field of activity.
It can also be know as the science, oh my word did I just say
science? Of the mind or of mental processes.
It is also a science of human & animal behavior.
In psychology we often find ourselves observing, experimenting, and
making theories. All which relate to science.

7. Closing, and hopefully Conclusion
So in the end science and psychology work together like a
team.
Together they bond in studies and help create theories.
Through experiments and observations we discover behaviors, habits,
and reactions that we can all discover through psychology and
science.
