Cyber Psychology Lab
Cyber psychology is a branch of psychology that explores the impact of technology, particularly the internet and digital devices, on human behavior, cognition, and mental processes. It delves into how individuals interact with technology, how technology affects their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and how these interactions shape social dynamics.
Cyber psychology examines various aspects, including online communication, social media behavior, virtual reality experiences, online gaming, cyberbullying, online identity formation, internet addiction, and the influence of digital environments on mental health.
It combines principles from psychology, sociology, communication, and computer science to understand how people think, feel, and behave in the context of the digital world. Researchers in cyber psychology explore topics such as online relationships, the psychology behind online decision-making, the impact of anonymity on behavior, and the ways in which technology shapes our perceptions of reality.
