[[ | '''Psychology Wiki''' was a Fandom.com (formerly {{tag|Wikia}}) wiki on {{tag|Psychology}} (ancient Greek: psyche = "soul" or "mind", logos/-ology= "study of") — an academic and applied science/field involving the study of the human mind and human behavior. Psychology also refers to the application of such knowledge to various spheres of human activity, including problems of individuals' everyday life and the treatment of {{tag|mental illness}}. | ||

==Closure== | |||
The Psychology Wiki was closed between April 10-11 2025. When user Luna Rose asked Fandom staff about it, they explained that Fandom no longer wanted to host medical wikis due to the risk of harm from misinformation.<ref>Rose, Luna.
