This subject is part of the basic training that will allow nursing students to approach Psychology understood as a scientific study of human behaviour and its contribution to the health-disease process and quality of life of people. What we do and what we experience (thoughts and feelings) are the fundamental components of our behavior. The study of: human diversity, the biological bases of our behavior, the acquisition, maintenance and change of information, knowledge and behavior, our personality, the context and environment in which we are, the relationship with others, our degree adaptation to life, and what we do and experience in health and disease, are all areas of special interest in this subject. Psychology as a science and profession provides very relevant knowledge to ensure a better and longer life. Knowledge of the relevant variables, of the precise methodology and of current research and practices constitutes the object of study of this subject.
