15 Most Popular Psychology Websites and Blogs

7. Brain Pickings: This site is another blog, which’s main focus is one providing people with a means of better understanding themselves. This means that posts usually revolve around topics which could be used to do things like enhance your creativity or better understand knowledge and how to gain it. So in a sense this blog is more of a self-help kind of space, but with a much more psychological framework to it, though it should be noted that other topics such as politics, history, and philosophy have been known to make appearances in these posts. . It is run solely by Maria Popva who is a distinguished writer whose works can be found in Wired UK, the Atlantic, and the New York Times. This is a site that was started for friends, by a friend, and has since spread to all sorts of people from house wives to psych students.
