Special Issue on

Applied Social and Psychological Studies


Applied Social and Psychological Studies focuses on the practical application of social and psychological theories to address real-world challenges in diverse settings, including education, healthcare, workplace, and community development. This theme examines human behavior, social interactions, and cognitive processes to inform interventions, policies, and programs that promote well-being, social cohesion, and effective decision-making. By integrating empirical research, evidence-based practices, and interdisciplinary approaches, the topic encourages studies that translate theory into practice, offering insights into behavioral change, mental health support, organizational effectiveness, and societal improvement.
