As for groups I do belong
to several psychological groups were I am a member, such as the APA. These
groups I do identify with. One group that I do belong to are the racial groups,
which make up America. However, I do not identify with one particular group.
These group that represents the individuals of America mean nothing to me.
Racial groups are just a means to categorize individuals by racial background
or skin color. If asked my racial background I do tell or talking about myself
I will mention my multiracial background, however my lack of seeing race or
skin color as a means to categorize individuals by racial groups demonstrate my
lack of identification. As a child and as an adult I have never used race as a
means to set one individual apart from another individual. Race and skin color
are unseen by me. My lack of seeing race or skin color as a means to separate
the America and the world also demonstrate my lack of identification.
Psychology is the study of the mind and behavior. American Psychological Association (2013), "the discipline embraces all aspects of the human experience — from the functions of the brain to the actions of nations, from child development to care for the aged" (para. 1). American Psychological Association (2013), "in every conceivable setting from scientific research centers to mental health care services, "the understanding of behavior" is the enterprise of psychologists" (para. 1).
