Narrower in psychology refers to the process or tendency to focus on specific aspects of a broader concept, situation, or problem, often by limiting attention, scope, or options.

Nation in the Psychology Context: Understanding, Examples, and implications
Understanding Nation in the Psychology Context:
In psychology, the term "nation" is not commonly used in the same way it is in political science or sociology. Psychology primarily focuses on understanding and exploring individual and Group behavior, cognition, emotions, and mental processes. However, the concept of "nation" can indirectly intersect with psychology when examining topics related to identity, culture, group dynamics, and social psychology.
