Abstract
Psychology, which focuses on the study of both the person’s behavior as well as his or her mind, has continued to evolve with the passing time. This particular field of study can be said to have originated in the 19th century. However, the origins of this field of study go back to the era before Christ at the time that the Greek philosophers, Plato and Aristotle existed. A good many philosophers have contributed to this field of study with many offering arguments that would later be used in modern psychology.
