What is Psychology?

Psychology is the study of people: how they think, how they act, react and interact. Psychology is concerned with all aspects of behaviour and the thoughts, feelings and motivation underlying such behaviour. People often ask the difference between psychology and psychiatry. Psychiatry draws on knowledge of psychology, but it is a branch of medicine concerned with the treatment of psychological problems and mental illness using drugs and psychotherapeutic techniques.

MRS. PETERS

Mrs. Peters learned to play the piano when she was at school, but when she begun to work, she lived in a very small flat, and there was no room for a piano. She was sad about this, but there was nothing she could do about it, however much she tried.

Then, when she was twenty-three, she married, and she and her husband went to live in a bigger flat. "I'm going to buy myself a nice little piano now," Mrs. Peters said to her husband, "and I'm going to begin to practice again."

Her husband was happy, because he liked listening to the piano.
