Psychophysiology
Psychophysiology
Bridging the gap between psychological and medical science, you will explore the close interconnectedness between the brain and body
as part of our psychophysiology degree programs.
What Is Psychophysiology?
Psychophysiology is a branch of psychology that closely examines the physiological basis of psychological functions.
For example, imagine a student’s heart rate skyrocketing as they approach a classroom to sit for an exam they did not study for; a standard psychologist would dig into the emotional reasons the student avoided their studies while a physiologist would be more interested in the acceleration of the student’s heartbeat. A psychophysiologist, on the other hand, aims to find the connection between these reactions.
Psychophysiology requires an empathetic understanding of the human experience. To ease human suffering, you must be able to treat individuals using a humanistic approach, considering their entire lived experience as you help them uncover why their brain and body interact the way they do.
About Our Psychophysiology Programs
Our online psychophysiology programs use elements from physiology, psychology, and technology to provide a comprehensive education of the mind-body connection.
