BIO<strong>PSYC</strong>HOLOGY<br />

Psychology is both the study of human<br />

behavior and the study of the brain;<br />

BIO<strong>PSYC</strong>HOLOGY, then, involves an in-depth look<br />

at how the brain functions and how those<br />

functions make people behave differently in<br />

certain types of situations.<br />

Biopsychology is the branch of neuroscience<br />

concerned with how the brain and the nervous system<br />

control behaviour. Biopsychology is a rapidly developing<br />

research area that includes all aspects of the<br />

structure and function of the nervous systems and<br />

involves a variety of experimental strategies aimed at<br />

improving our understanding of nervous systems,<br />

(biology) and their relationship to behaviour (psychology).
