AB  - There may be at least three ways through which psychology andpsychologists can contribute to peace processes: 1. Psychologicalresearch findings can be usual for peace processes. 2.Psychologists as a professional group can involve in negotiationsor other peace-related processes. 3. Applied psychologicalcounseling skills such as active listening, basic empathy,multicultural competency, acceptance, rapport-building etc. canbe utilized to train both sides of the conflict for a smoothtransition to peace processes. Unfortunately, these three optionsare rarely taken into consideration. The article discusses variousways through which psychology and psychologists can and can’tcontribute to peace processes, errors, biases and fallaciestypically observed in the relevant research and the applied fields,and the distinction between medical and social models of peace.The introduction of new terms to the field of peace studies ingeneral, and peace psychology in particular is another keystrength of this article.
