Psychology, therefore,literally means "study of the mind".
misleading:误导的,令人误解的,引入歧途 subject:主题,科目

英语字典(牛津,朗文) 现代英汉-汉英心理学词汇
therefore:因此 literally :根据字面意思
因此,从字面上来讲,心理的意思就是对于心灵(意识)的 研究。
However,a more recent definition by Atkinson et al(1991) suggests that psychology is: "The scientific study of behaviour and mental processes"
BIOLOGY
1 Evolution - Darwin's suggestion that humans have evolved from other animals. The discoveries in genetics that followed from his evolutionary theroy have had many important implications for the study and understanding of bahaviour.
Evolution:进化论
suggestion:建议,意见,观点 implication:含义,影响,(可引申为意义)
进化论——Darwin认为人类是从别的动物进化而来的。基因 理论(遗传学)是由其理论发展而来的,在基因领域的发现, 对于研究和理解行为有重大的影响。
BIOLOGY
2 Physiology - the discoveries, mostly by the medical profession, of the structure and function of the brain, nervous, and endocrine system have significantly contributed to the understanding of behaviour.
suggest:认为,建议,提议
然而,Atkinson(1991)等人提出了一个较新的定义,“心 理学是对于行为与心理过程的科学研究”。 心理学是研究行为和心理过程的科学。
Just giving this simple definition, however, is a bit misleading, since psychologists now and throughout their history have not only disagreed about the definition of psychology but have also strongly disagreed about what should be studied in the subject and how it should be studied.
2 Physiology - the discoveries, mostly by the medical profession, of the structure and function of the brain, nervous, and endocrine system have significantly contributed to the understanding of behaviour.
