'''''Psychologies''''' is a monthly [women's magazine](/source/List_of_women's_magazines) dedicated to [personal development](/source/personal_development) and [well-being](/source/well-being), published by [Reworld Media](/source/Reworld_Media) in France and [Kelsey Media](/source/Kelsey_Media) in the United Kingdom.

==History==
''Psychologies'' was founded in 1970 by Jacques Mousseau. Sales rose to 70,000 copies.

In 1997, the magazine was bought by Jean-Louis Servan-Schreiber and his wife Perla Finev, who, taking inspiration from the American ''[Psychology Today](/source/Psychology_Today)'' magazine, renamed and relaunched the ''Psychologies'' magazine. After only a few years of publication the magazine found success, and reached 320,000 copies in 2005.

In 2004 [Hachette Filipacchi Médias](/source/Hachette_Filipacchi_M%C3%A9dias) purchased 49% of Finev's capital.

The following year saw the creation of five international editions of the ''Psychologies'' magazine in [Italy](/source/Italy), [Spain](/source/Spain), [Belgium](/source/Belgium), [the United Kingdom](/source/United_Kingdom) and [Russia](/source/Russia). In 2006 and 2007 [Chinese](/source/China) and [Romania](/source/Romania)n editions were created. In 2008 [Lagardère Active](/source/Lagard%C3%A8re_Active) bought out of the remaining 51% of Finev capital and a [Mexican](/source/Mexico) edition was created.

Its [German](/source/German_language) version was launched by Madame Verlag in November 2013.<ref>{{cite web|title=Madame Verlag launches Psychologies Magazin|url=http://www.publicitas.com/en/global/media-news-events/news-detail/?no_cache=1&rss=true&newsid=106126&title=Germany%3A-Madame-Verlag-launches-Psychologies-Magazin#.UlRcq2RJVgs|work=Publicitas|access-date=8 October 2013|date=17 September 2013}}</ref>

In 2014, Hachette sold ''Psychologies'' and ''Premiere'' to a consortium led by [Rossel](/source/Rossel_(company)) called 4B Media.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Lagardère - Press releases|access-date=5 April 2020|url=https://www.lagardere.com/press-room/press-releases/press-releases-363.html&idpress=6486}}</ref>
