...Dark psychology refers to the art of studying human behavior in order to take advantage of the psychological nature of others. This often involves the tendency of people preying on others in order to achieve what they desire. Being equipped with the knowledge of dark psychology is almost advantageous as having superpowers can be. Psychology entails the understanding of how a human mind works. Often you will find that some people react to different situations with a discrepancy. This means that there might be triggers to a person's emotions that may not necessarily trigger to somebody else's emotion. The understanding of these two is what makes psychology interesting. Acquisition of knowledge is key because it is a very powerful tool.

The term dark psychology does not refer to the opposite of psychology but is more a subset of the science of studying the behaviors of the human brain. Dark psychology can be evoked by criminologists and forensic psychologists when they are examining the behaviors of psychopaths or sociopaths. Psychopaths are those who clinically display a personality disorder which makes them particularly aberrant or aggressive towards others, and sociopaths are those who, similarly, display no emotions, conscience, or regard for societal norms or rules.

Dark psychology can also refer to the practices of deception, manipulation, or seduction for personal gain, as well as the practices of hypnosis, negative conditioning or brainwashing, or gaslighting. People use dark psychology for a number of reasons, and not all of them are negative, despite the name. Dark psychology can be used for business purposes, i.e. the use of persuasion in sales, or to help you visualize your goals, i.e. neuro-linguistic programming.

Dark Psychology is a branch of psychology that fascinates people across the globe who are interested in topics like understanding the criminal mind, better understanding the darker thoughts that control human behavior at all ages, and the conscious actions people take to influence others using psychological manipulation.

Dark Psychology is the study of the more side to human nature: what defines it, how to observe it, where the lines are and how it can be used for both beneficial and nefarious purposes. It covers mild uses like a clever car salesman who continuously has the best sales numbers on his team because he is able to read his customers and build an amiable connection with them based on observations to the severe uses like studying the mind of criminals who use their understanding of human behavior to victimize others.

Many of the elements of Dark Psychology are in use (sometimes inteintentionally, sometimes unconsciously) in everyone's daily interactions and communications with other people from friends and family to clients or even perfect strangers, that's why you need to understand it.
