Psychological:
Ψ One paradigm for psychology is to look at it in terms of several forces. That approach, illustrated on this website, is not the only approach.
Not everyone fits into little boxes but rather many think outside the box.
Lindblom
Note: I've included myself in the tradition.
What is Psychology?
Psychology is the;science, analysis;and practice of specific, general and unified systems in thinking and cognition, development, motivation, personal and social interaction, intelligence, emotion, consciousness, behavior, and the dynamic interaction between those elements in conjunction with many emergent characteristics not so easily classified.
Thereby, should you find the above list to be short, perhaps that area within psychology is emergent.

Your guide for this website is Eric Lindblom. There are those who would wonder who that person is and why would he include himself in the proud tradition of psychology! Generally speaking that inclusion is for others to say. Specifically, there is an exception represented by some initials behind the name. What does that mean? That is a recogntion by others of a specific level of study and, if that person is in academia, other people could refer to him as a psychologist. Why the equivocation? It is to be within the law as a matter of respect and ethics and not beyond.
