Is it easy to understand people? It is possible but it takes a lifelong period for learning about psychology. But if one wants to ever be happy its a journey one must take.
Whether you must try to make sense of your spouse’s behaviour or that of your parents or children or boss, knowledge of psychology will help. However what we call psychology is too narrow a subject to understand and to make sense of people’s behavior around us.
To that end we need philosophy. Still to increase awareness we need even more. We need to understand the laws of cause and effect, of nature. So many factors affect people’s behavior. Then we must know economics and marketing because they help us understand the external causation of behavior.
On top of that your own opinion, bias, moods effect not only your perception of people’s behavior but that behaviour itself.
So what name do we give such a knowledge?
Whatever the name you need it if you want to make sense of the of this mad world around you.
