Psycholic, an independent monthly newsletter, is published by a group of enthusiastic young people studying BSc (Hons) Psychology, which is a course collaborated by University of Salford and LiPACE.  It has been my great honour and a precious experience working with Venus, Sora, Kristen, Jason, Woody, Anthony, Vicky and Warren to pursue our mutual goals of promoting fascinating psychology knowledge and heightening its practical use in everyday life.  Since its debut in November 2011, Psycholic has extended its network to Facebook, email and blog to reach people from all walks of life.  A total of 14 columns are dedicated to thrill our readers through various aspects of psychology:

• Words from Editors – an opinion piece written in turn by the editorial team.
• SD3 – by Venus Lai, Chief Editor. SD3 stands for 3 standard deviations, reveals the secrets of abnormal behaviors.
• Defense Mechanisms - by Venus Lai, Chief Editor. The column tells the rules of defense originated from Freud, and how people protect their self-esteem through them.
• LOL – by Venus Lai, Chief Editor and Stephanie Szeto, Deputy Chief Editor. An interactive game platform between readers and the editor.
• I love therefore I am – by Stephanie Szeto, Deputy Chief Editor. Borrowed from the famous quote of Freud, the column aims to explore one of the basic human drives - affiliation.

• Paradox – by Anthony Chan, Senior Editor. The column aims to solve the paradox of some seemingly abnormal human thoughts and behaviours.
