According to Ronald Riggio, Ph.D., of Claremont McKenna College, the study of psychology is important to explain basic human behavior, apply critical decision and thinking skills, improve interpersonal communication and provide a background for the business sector.Psychology graduates hold many different careers.
The study of psychology teaches how humans think and the way in which humans arrive at decisions or behaviors. Students who graduate with a psychology major also learn proper research techniques and apply quantitative and qualitative means to solve problems or explain observations. According to Nova Southeastern University, psychology relates to a variety of fields. It examines human behavior in settings such as crime, sports, business and clinical health. Students develop a general knowledge in psychology, as well as a specific focus area from which there are many to choose. Industrial or organizational psychology applies to the business world, as it explains management styles and employee efficiency. Developmental psychology explores issues for those in gerontology or those who work with children.
Trinity College suggests that students study psychology for a deeper understanding of the personal world. The study of select psychology courses applies to other disciplines to give students more tools to understand underlying behaviors in various fields of study.

These include our emotions, the cultural situation, the medium used to communicate, and even our location. The complexity is why good communication skills are considered so desirable by employers around the world: accurate, effective and unambiguous communication is actually extremely hard.

It is transmitted in some way (for example, in speech or writing), and the recipient ‘decodes’ it. Of course, there may be more than one recipient, and t...
