    1. Industrial psychology refers to the applied organizational psychology used to study, analyze and understand human behavior in the workplace, mainly how business works and how employees function. Industrial psychology uses a range of scientific methods, including quantitative and qualitative research.

    2. Industrial psychology is the study of behavior in the workplace. Industrial psychologists continually study the behavior and attitudes of employees in every major type of industry and then compile the latest findings and recommendations, making them available to employers. These psychologists show employers better methods of hiring, training and managing employees, as well as how to gain better feedback from employees. Industrial psychologists improve the performance, morale, well-being and safety of employees, which in turn contributes to the company’s bottom line.
    Industrial psychologists also coach a company’s managers, demonstrating better methods of assessing and managing the talent of their employees to maximize their potential. This can help uncover hidden talent in the workforce, and it sometimes reveals that certain employees are better suited to a different job position than they currently work in.

    Clinical psychologists counsel and treat patients who have psychological problems or disorders. Clinical psychology is similar to counseling psychology, with the main difference being that clinical psychologists typically deal with patients who have more serious psychological problems than those treated by counseling psychologists. For example, counseling psychologists normally handle cases like marriage or career counseling, while clinical psychologists mostly deal with patients who have a serious psychological disorder and are likely to be institutionalized. Another difference is that most clinical psychologists work in clinics, hospitals or mental health institutions, while many counseling psychologists set up private practices.

    School psychology is a field that applies principles of educational psychology, developmental psychology, clinical psychology, community psychology, and applied behavior analysis to meet children's and adolescents' behavioral health and learning needs in a collaborative manner with educators and parents.
