Today's form of psychology has been heavily influenced by structuralism, behaviorism, and cognitivism which allows psychologists to have a variety of methods for observing and analyzing data. Instead of focusing on a certain point of view, psychology today incorporates external and internal factors into our behaviors and thoughts. Psychology also has many specialties such as clinical, industrial, pediatric, biological and experimental. This allows medical professionals and psychologists to have an accurate analysis of their work as they have mastered their field of choice.
