Why is psychology fascinating?

One of the wonderful aspects of psychology is that it is so rich and diverse – we all have different reasons for finding an interest in it.

This video features three researchers (Dr Prerna Aneja, Dr David Holland and Dr Katrina L. McDonough) describing their interest in psychology. One of the things you might notice is how personal and, at times, passionate these responses are.

As you watch the video, consider your own perspective and what has prompted you to explore psychology.
