Theoretical Psychology

Theoretical psychology is the branch of psychology focused on developing and testing ideas, models, and theories to understand how the mind works and why people behave the way they do. It involves exploring concepts like consciousness, perception, learning, and personality through research and logical reasoning. Rather than focusing solely on practical applications, it aims to build a framework for explaining psychological phenomena, guiding future research and informing therapy, education, and other fields. Essentially, it provides the foundational ideas that help us better understand human thought, emotion, and behavior.
