Synopsis

inScience Press is pleased to publish the book entitled Psychology Applications & Developments VIII as part of the Advances in Psychology and Psychological Trends series. These series of books comprise authors’ and editors’ work to address generalized research, focused on specific sections in the Psychology area.

In this eighth volume, a committed set of authors explore the Psychology field, therefore contributing to reach the frontiers of knowledge. Success depends on the participation of those who wish to find creative solutions and believe in their potential to change the world, altogether, to increase public engagement and
cooperation from communities. Part of our mission is to serve society with these initiatives and promote knowledge. Therefore, it is necessary the strengthening of research efforts in all fields and cooperation between the most assorted studies and backgrounds.

In particular, this book explores 5 major areas (divided into 5 sections) within the broad context of Psychology: Clinical Psychology, Educational Psychology, Social Psychology, Cognitive and Experimental Psychology and Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytical Psychotherapy. Each section comprises chapters that have emerged from extended and peer reviewed selected papers originally published in the proceedings of the International Psychological Applications Conference and Trends (InPACT 2022) conference series (http://www.inpactpsychologyconference. org/). This conference occurs annually with successful outcomes, for that reason original papers have been selected and its authors were invited to extend them significantly to once again undergo an evaluation process. Subsequently, the authors of the accepted chapters were requested to make corrections and improve the final submitted chapters. This process has resulted in the final publication of 27 high quality chapters.
