Through technology, students of psychology are allowed to access books and research articles that improve their academic and professional process and find tools for the elaboration of works through applications to facilitate their learning.In clinical psychology technology allows distance therapy, through this it is easier to give guidelines to some problems that were treated in person, in addition this tool allows greater comfort, anonymity and confidentiality for the patient.
The psycho-technologies
They are technologies that influence mental health care and predict the behavior of a given individual, in which they increase electronic devices and communication channels (video game platforms, GPS, messaging, etc.).One of the newest elements applied in psychology is the technology that unites actions or treatments, where the intervention models remain the same but in turn the technology uses other instruments so that the models adapt to it.
Technology and its uses in psychology:
• Mobile technologies: Use in evaluation, follow-up, treatment, support in daily life, localization, massive data analysis and mutual support.
• Cloud technology: These are websites or video games related to information, psychoeducation, evaluation and treatment.
• Social networks: information and analysis of massive data.
• Virtual reality: exposure for evaluation and treatment.
Risks and unwanted results:
• Possible affectation of attentional processes.
• Modifies brain functions, social and cultural patterns.
• Among minors, cyberbullying and abusive images are on the rise.
• Increase addictions and malaise in technology.
• Violations of privacy.
• Disregard data protection.
Psychology through technology offers simple and effective solutions for professionals in psychology and other professions as well as for patients.
