Question

Contrast the definition of psychology and the definition of law. Which definition is more clear-cut? Why do you think this is the case?

Answer 1

Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behaviour which has many subfields such as, educational, industrial, forensic etc. while law is a set of rules and regulations that binds the behaviours of people in a particular community and it also has many subfields such as, civil, criminal, business etc. In my opinion, the definition of psychology is simple and concise because it’s going to be same throughout the world and it has universal appeal while the definition of law is more complex and it is not the same even in one country and it doesn’t provide a comprehensive view of the word law.
