| | Physiological psychology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | At the risk of being overly broad in defining it as such, physiological psychology refers to the study of how physical conditions of the human body affect an individual's subjective experience. | | | Neurobiology and neurology also possess a portion of research and applied methods which could be classified as physiological psychology. | | | Physiological psychology is sometimes related to psychiatry, and in fact may end up becoming the parent branch which contains psychiatry. |

| | Classics in the History of Psychology -- Hume (1892) |
| | It is quite true that a psychology that speaks of the distinguished states in consciousness as absolutely separate is incorrect, but this tendency of separation is due to the employment in part of the method used by physiological psychology which lays the emphasis on the elements, upon the differences, and tends ignore the unity. | | | Hence the older psychology when studied with a view to be an introduction to the deeper problems of philosophy, attempted to lead the pupil up gradually to a position from which he could detect the limited character of the mechanical hypothesis. | | | Lastly, in considering the contributions made by physiological psychology, I have even heard it said that the great lesion taught by physiological psychology was the organic or united character of man's various faculties that ordinary psychology was in the habit of treating as separate faculties. |

| | WUNDT: Principles of Physiological Psychology -- Introduction |
| | Physiological psychology is primarily psychology and therefore has for its subject the manifold of conscious processes, whether as directly experienced by ourselves, or as inferred on the analogy of our own experiences from objective observation. | | | Physiological psychology, on the other hand, is competent to investigate the relations that hold between the processes of the physical and those of the mental life. | | | The task of physiological psychology remains the same in the analysis of ideas that it was in the investigation of sensations: to act as mediator between the neighbouring sciences of physiology and psychology. |

| | Although physiological psychology is concerned with physical organisms, it is distinguished from such life sciences as physiology and biology by its focus on behavior. | | | Physiological psychology overlaps with the field of neurobiology, which is the study of the nervous system and its functions. | | | The physiological psychologist (or behavioral neuroscientist) is also concerned with the functioning of the adrenal glands and with the physical processes involved in sensation. |

| | The study of dysfunction is perhaps the most visible portion of psychology, for the lay person assumes that all psychologists study and treat abnormal behavior. | | | Although the functional is as much a part of psychology as the dysfunctional, by examining the way our usually reliable psychological systems break down we gain information that is both theoretically and pragmatically useful. | | | Some psychologists are fascinated by the nature of human behavior, thought, and emotion, whereas others seek to help people overcome their psychological problems or move more rapidly towards the goals they have set for themselves. |

| | Evolutionary Psychology Primer by Leda Cosmides and John Tooby |
| | Evolutionary psychology is an approach to psychology, in which knowledge and principles from evolutionary biology are put to use in research on the structure of the human mind. | | | Evolutionary psychology can be thought of as the application of adaptationist logic to the study of the architecture of the human mind. | | | Psychology will be based on a new foundation, that of the necessary acquirement of each mental power and capacity by gradation." Thirty years later, William James tried to do just that in his seminal book, Principles of Psychology, one of the founding works of experimental psychology (James, 1890). |
