The amount of water vapor in the air is referred to as humidity, which can be measured and expressed in several ways. Absolute humidity is a direct measure of the amount of water vapor in a given volume of air, specific humidity is the mass of water vapor in a given mass of air, and relative humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air compared with the amount that could be there if the air were saturated. The dew point is the temperature at which the air becomes saturated.

Psychology, perhaps the oldest of the social sciences, is like sociology in that it is interested in a very broad range of human thought and behavior. The main difference is that psychology studies human behavior primarily on the individual level. By doing this, psychologists seek to understand and predict (and sometimes alter) the thoughts and behavior of individuals. Insofar as it considers the physiological influences on human thought and behavior, psychology overlaps with one of the natural sciences, biology. It also has one important area of overlap with sociology, known as social psychology. Social psychology concerns the interaction between the individual and society, with a particular emphasis on the influences of society and social groups on the thought and behavior of the individual.
Because of its interests in both the individual and society, social psychology is an important subdiscipline within both sociology and psychology, and social psychology courses are commonly taught in both sociology and psychology departments.
