These series of books comprise authors’ and editors’ work to address generalized research, focused on specific sections in the Psychology area.

In this tenth 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 7 major areas (divided into 7 sections) within the broad context of Psychology: Clinical Psychology, Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytical Psychotherapy, Social Psychology, Educational Psychology, Environmental Psychology, Health Psychology and Legal Psychology. 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 2024) conference series (http://www.inpact-psychologyconference.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.

This process has resulted in the final publication of 25 high quality chapters.
