Response to my question

According to what I have found on the internet, it seems that psychology affects many aspects of out daily life. For instance, when you don't feel like your job, psychology can help you know what you should do. Also, it could help you to be more efficient.(Laurie, 2008) Besides, psychology can help us build up strong relationships with other people. It can help us become a good communicator. For students, we could get higher grades if we applied psychology appropriately.(Wagner)

I think these two articles are quite reliable. Although the one on About.com doesn't have a specific time, we can still know that it is no more than four years. The author, Ms. Kendra Van Wagner is a writer specializing in psychology, child development and education. She holds a Bachelor's degree of Science in Psychology. Besides, she has already written different topics of papers about psychology. As a result, what she said was quite reliable. Also, what she has written 0n the internet is the function of psychology, so I think it contains almost no bias.

For the second passage, the situation seems the same. Ms Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen, graduated from University of Alberta, in Edmonton, Canada, has a degree in Education and Psychology. She created and maintain four websites. It shows that how professional she is and make her words credible. I'm not sure whether this website has any bias. She seems to introduce her articals and websites to peoples. I don't know whether it can be considered as bias. Also, most of her work is about couples and marriage. She didn't say much about other aspects. So, I think she might only spcializing in how to apply psychology in marriage and relationships between different genders.

Psychology: Will it help us live better?

As the competition become much fiercer, people now have much more stresses. It has negative influences on many aspects such as the efficiency of work and relation between people. Besides, people's value of the world might be changed.
However, most of the people don't know to use psychology to adjust themselves. As a result, my paper is going to introduce some theories to prove that psychology can help people make them feel better. Besides, I want to encourage people to use psychology more by giving some examples who lives better after applying psychology.
While, I am still thinking some questions about my topic. So, I might keep on editing this post before Thursday. I hope I can develop several excellent questions.

My question is: how psychology applies to our daily life.

Three topics

First of all, I want to talk briefly about psychology, such as its origion and history, how many branches psychology has and how it developed till now. I think to expand a topic, knowing its origion and history is very important. It will help us understand its function. Also, we can make comparisons between the origion and the modern one. We can find out how it changed and why. Besides, we can learn from these changes and make more changes which fits ourselves much better.
Secondly, since there are three main study fields which are Behaviorism, Humanism and existentialism, and Cognitivism, I will talk about each of them and introduce some main people who are related to each fields. Why I choose to write about these fields is that I am really interested in some of the people who make contributions to psychology such as Freud. There theories also interest me a lot. As a result, I want to know more about them by this time. It is a good chance for me.
Finally, I will talk about how psychology influents our daily life. For example, how it can help us live better. Such these appliance will show up on my paper.
In my opinion, the last one is the most important because it relates everyone's life. As we know, many people go consulting with clinical psychologist. Some of them may have too much stress on their job or study. Some of them may fear a stuff because they had terrible experiences with it before. They want to overcome the fear, so they go to talk with psychologists. What I think si that psychology can help not only those who have problems, but everyone. We can try to use it as a protective measure before something bad happen so that we won't have too many problems. That's why I thought the last topic is the most important.
