The career option in psychology that is most appealing to me is sports psychology. I run cross country and track, so I know firsthand how it is to be an athlete. The mental challenges are just as hard as the physical challenges; you're not only exerting your body but your mind as well. For running especially, there is a huge mental aspect to it, it's really hard to keep going at times. I think I could relate my experience as an athlete to other athletes as a sports psychologist because I know what it's like. I want to be able to help athletes that are struggling with their mental health and make sure they are at their best mentally and physically. At first, I thought I wanted to be a therapist/counselor for people, but I think I would be better working with athletes and id be able to connect with them on a more personal level.

this experiment demonstrates the effects racism and colorism has on children.

I think our social needs are just as important as our physiological needs to support our overall wellbeing.

the theory that human and animal behavior can be explained in terms of conditioning, without appeal to thoughts or feelings, and that some mental conditions are best treated by altering behavior patterns.

this can be helpful for psychology students who are looking to become therapists.
