What are the disadvantages of studying psychology?

There are two disadvantages: there is a sense of loss and loss of strength, and the feeling becomes very sensitive.

1, sense of loss and loss of strength.

Sometimes, people around you obviously have certain behavioral tendencies, but they can't be persuaded to correct this tendency (just like studying economics, you will naturally think about gains and losses, while the premise of studying psychology is to accept everyone's ideas and never interfere with others). Most importantly, you know it will happen, but you must watch it happen.

2. Become very sensitive

You become suspicious of everything, which is very bad for your later life. Sometimes people will feel that life is beautiful when they are simple, and you will be tired when you pursue everything.

The research purpose of psychology

1, understand the world at home and abroad.

Studying psychology can deepen people's understanding of themselves. By studying psychology, we can know why we do some behaviors, what kind of psychological activities are hidden behind these behaviors, and how our personality, temper and other characteristics are formed.

Similarly, we can also apply the laws of psychological activities we have learned to interpersonal communication, and infer inner psychological activities through the behavior of others, so as to realize a more accurate understanding of the external world.

2. Regulating behavior

Psychology not only helps to give a descriptive explanation of psychological phenomena and behaviors, but also helps to point out the law of the emergence and development of psychological activities. People's psychological characteristics are quite stable, but they also have certain plasticity.

Therefore, we can predict and adjust the behavior of ourselves and others within a certain range, and we can also adjust the behavior of ourselves and others by changing internal and external factors. In other words, we can try our best to eliminate unfavorable factors, create a favorable environment, and stimulate positive behaviors of ourselves and others.

3, directly applied to practical work

Psychology is divided into two parts: theoretical research and applied research. Most knowledge of theoretical psychology is indirect guidance, and all branches of applied research can play a direct role in practical work.
