I think it's popular because, like the guy before me, people think it's just talking about other people and we can all do that, right? Those people usually know just enough about pop psychology to think they have it figured out. In reality, psychology can be one of the most complex subjects, because human beings are unique in some ways, and remarkably similar in others. Human behavior is as varied as human beings, and studying why we act the way we do can be a lifelong endeavor.

What motivates people to study psychology? Perhaps, they just expect to be involved in a process of "studying minds".
