Similarities and Differences between Sociology and Psychology

An easy way to begin to understand the difference between sociology and psychology is that sociology deals in the collective, or society, while psychology focuses on the individual.

Whichever field you choose, courses in statistics, research methods, and behavioral analysis are typical.

A degree in either sociology or psychology can prepare you for a variety of careers.

To dive in deeper, sociology explores social behavior within groups, cultures, organizations, and social institutions. Sociology majors study social theory and social structures, research methods, and social policy. The American Sociology Association suggests that “studying sociology fosters creativity, innovation, critical thinking, analytic problem solving, and communication skills,” further noting that “sociology challenges you to see the world through the lens of different cultures and communities.”

Your coursework in sociology will likely explore concepts of diversity, social responsibility, human rights, and dignity and respect for others in society.

In contrast, psychology investigates the causes of human behavior at the individual level using observation, measurement, and analysis. Psychologists study the cognitive, emotional, and social means by which individuals relate to one another and to their environments.

Your coursework as a psychology major will focus on the study of human behavior and mental processes.
