What is Ecology? What does it focus in reference to psychology?
Ecology is the study of the relationships between living beings and their environment. In psychology, the focus is on the interdependence between the environment and people. Whatever has been created by human beings within the natural environment is the built environment. The part of nature which remains untouched by human hand is the natural environment.
