Psychology is the way people think and why we think certain things. Psychology would help my business because the media has shaped an image of what people should look like. Being trim and fit is what society has accepted for the ideal look. This pressure of what society holds as “normal” molds people to think that being trim and fit is extremely important. So where do people go to get trim and fit? My business – my fitness center.
Psychology, or the way people think, has a huge effect or reaction to the economy. It is kind of a two way street. First, people with money and influence tell people what is cool and what isn’t. People change the way they act and stuff they buy to fit into the crowd. Second, if people really start to like a certain thing then the economy will shift to try to compensate for this occurrence.
Criminal Justice is the making of laws. The old way of making laws is called a common law. When a group of people think that one thing is wrong so they don’t do it. When someone does do that certain thing they are punished for it. After awhile this thing becomes a written law. History is affected by the past, but it is also used in the present to gage what has been accepted and what hasn’t been. If something in the past was considered wrong, then people will think that it still will be today.
Language is important because in order for communication to occur, there needs to be some sort of a common language, otherwise lack of communication could be a barrier to my business’s success. Also importantly, there could be discrimination towards people who speak different languages.
All these disciplines make a template for what people think is acceptable and marketable.
