So delving into what the deep meaning of the word 'psychology' is, has anything, truly to do with this? Psychology, as the majority 'understands; it today, as the word has 'evolved' to be, is the study of the mind, a practice to end the mental sufferings of the person. Buddhism, essentially, is the study of the mind,a practice to end the mental sufferings of the person. There are no real ramifications here.
