It examines observable behaviors and internal processes, including how the unconscious mind influences daily life&#8221;(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apu.apus.edu\/area-of-study\/arts-and-humanities\/resources\/what-is-psychology\/\">source<\/a>). Psychology as a whole is its own ecosystem filled with smaller planets of complexity and simplicity. Psychology dives deeply into the innermost of an individual to help, inform, change, and support someone in need. The smaller planets I mentioned before are the sub-units of psychology that dive deeper into that topic and unravel its complexity on their own. For example, Clinical Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Developmental Psychology, Personality Psychology, and Social Psychology are branches of Psychology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Branches<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Clinical Psychology:<\/strong> Focuses on diagnosing and treating mental health disorders and emotional distress(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apu.apus.edu\/area-of-study\/arts-and-humanities\/resources\/what-is-psychology\/\">source<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cognitive Psychology:<\/strong> Explores internal mental processes such as memory, perception, language, and thinking (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apu.apus.edu\/area-of-study\/arts-and-humanities\/resources\/what-is-psychology\/\">source<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>Developmental Psychology:<\/strong> Studies how human thought processes and behaviors change across a person&#8217;s lifespan(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apu.apus.edu\/area-of-study\/arts-and-humanities\/resources\/what-is-psychology\/\">source<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>Social Psychology:<\/strong> Investigates how social groups, interactions, and environments influence individual actions(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apu.apus.edu\/area-of-study\/arts-and-humanities\/resources\/what-is-psychology\/\">source<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Personality<\/strong> Psychology: <mark><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF\" class=\"has-inline-color\">the unique and relatively stable pattern of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that sets one person apart from another<\/mark><\/mark>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/topic\/personality\/Psychoanalytic-theories\">source<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Each branch is the study of how something affects the mind, body, and behavior through treatment, growth, interactions, and perception. For this project, the study will focus on personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research Topic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personality Psychology addresses how individuals feel,think, and behave, in other words, the three parts of the psychological triad. The triad is very useful because it highlights the conflicts between the two. In my mind, I may know someone isn&#8217;t good for me, but in my heart, I love them so much I can&#8217;t let go. Personality Psychology contributes to the rest of psychology by showing how each interacts with the others through discovering how people are. Personality Psychology studies one&#8217;s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The Big Five Perosnlaity Traits or The Five-Factor model of personality &#8220;s a hierarchical organization of personality traits in terms of five basic dimensions: Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness to Experience&#8221;(<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/1635039\/\">Source<\/a>). These traits can be measured through questionnaires that assess how strongly a person demonstrates each trait. These measurements produce data that researchers can use to identify personality patterns and better understand individual differences in how people think, feel, and behave.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"678\" height=\"452\" src=\"https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images.jpg 678w, https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-style-default has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60)\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Digital humanities It is an interdisciplinary field that uses a variety of digital tools and computational methods to analyze, preserve, and share human culture.
