Psychologists use reearch to predict and sometimes control behavior, the solutions for the practical problems then sometimes help individuals and society.

Study mental processing because:
-facinating and challening
-Improve education
-Reduce stress

-some obseve behavior in specially arranged conditions measuring and testing it

reason to study behavior is because its a window to the workings of the human mind.
Some study the wide varity of different organism (to only humans).
Even small behavious can give us clues to our behavior

Psychological behavior watch teenage girls students as they meet their new young male teacher.
They laugh once he is because they might be: nervous,excited,to show how cool they were, because of anicipation, arousal, self concious or the most common one: typical reaction of adolessant girls.

I always wondered why girls laugh and scream after something exciting happends like they talked to a boy, but this really explains it and helps me look at the word in a psychological way.
