Applied psychology uses information from the studies conducted by experimental psychologists to solve human problems. Some fields where psychology has been applied include engineering, rehabilitation, sports, counseling, schools, and clinical settings. One of the more common examples of applied psychology is in counseling. Oftentimes, people will seek counseling if they are dealing with challenging situations in their lives and need help processing or changing their behaviors as a result. Another example is in the field of product design. Have you ever noticed that newer cars (made after 1986) have a third brake light in the rear windshield, while those made earlier only have the two rear brake lights? This design change was the result of scientific research conducted by psychologist John Voevodsky. His research showed that over a 10-month period, taxis equipped with the additional brake light were involved in 60% fewer rear-end collisions than a control group. 18
