Advertisement and Sciences – Five diverse views Being primarily consumers‚ our view on advertisement is extremely biased. We consider most of it as excessively annoying and censure the advertising industry while at the same time we are highly receptive to their efforts‚ and as if that was not enough we take part in collegiate neurological studies on consumer behaviour. The advertising industry uses our behaviour as a tool and the better they become the less we are annoyed by all the banners

PSYCHOLOGY AS A SCIENCE Psychology is the scientific study of the behavior of individuals and their mental processes. (Fuchs & Milar‚ 2002). But what makes it a scientific study? First of all‚ why not? Nowadays the idea of psychology as a science seems so natural to us‚ but it was not always like this.

* I believe sociology could help resolve some of society’s issues. It could help a lot all around when you think about it. If you know why or how‚ then you can help figure out how to stop it. If you know why the children are starting to do drugs or have sex at an earlier age you can nip it in the bud and try to prevent it. Or at least let it be known how to try and prevent it.
