In all sciences, a sound grasp of the normal is considered to be a perquisite for understanding the abnormal. In medicine, for example, physiology is considered to form the basis for understanding organ dysfunction. In Psychiatry as well, it is not possible to understand pathology of a disease, which is the specialization of the abnormal without investigating much effort in understanding the normal mental phenomena on the first place. Psychology can be defined as the scientific study of the mind (mental processes) and behaviour. Most Students are fascinated and interested in Psychology as they discover that it is in their everyday lives since psychology affects so many aspects of our lives, even people who do not intend to specialize in it need to know something about this dynamic field.
