By publishing the newsletter - Psycholic, we aim to promote psychological knowledge and raise others' concern on interesting psychological phenomenon. Psycholic is composed by two words, namely Psychology and -holic, showing that we all are enthusiastic at Psychology.

Psycholic will be published on every 11th of a month. We will post our articles on this blog after the publication.

About Psycholic's Logo

Coat of Arms of Psycholic, designed by Sora Siu
The logo of Psycholic was designed by Sora Siu, which is a kind of coat of arms. The use of colour for the field is azure (blue) as an allusion to wisdom and the planet Neptune which reflects creativity and curiosity, and also its same astronomical symbol as the symbol of Psychology. On the chief of the shield, there is a book of Psychology and a book of our Psycholic. The cross of quill pen and ink pen on the middle means that we are delivering knowledge from the literature to general public and it covers from old to new studies. On the base, the checker style of Greek letter psi in various colours with the ring surrounded represents our diversity in content and editors’ connection through Psychology. The motto of our arms in Latin is “Psychologia Fovendam” denoting “Promotion of Psychology”, which is our aspiration.
