Rider University Thinking Like A Psychological Scientist Discussion

Psychology is a science. What do you think of this statement? Is it true? or not so much? How do psychologists gather information?

In this course we will study the psychology of well-being. We will consider how relationships, thinking, attitudes and behaviors can be part of a happier, more positive, and healthier life. How will we know what aspects of life make a difference? How will we decide if this evidence is valid? This is psychological science.
