Response to What is philosophy and psychology?

Dorothy, There are likely many answers to your question and most would probably be 'opinions' more than anything else. Generally speaking, psychology is the study of human experience...this can include human thought, behaviour, emotion, etc. Psychologists' salaries depend on many variables including their area of training. A registered psychologist (with a Ph.D. degree) can work as a professor, researcher, 897

Dorothy, Are you asking about philosophy as it relates to psychology or as a separate field of study?
