The psychology of author, the habits of author in revising and rewriting his draft, the genesis of the work of art are examples of psychologycal studies towards a writer.
One should know that a draft of a novel can sometimes be rejected by a publisher and author should do revision and even a significant change in the story and character of the novel.
Another contribution of psychology towards literary criticism is related to the character and characterization. Psychology can explain why a certain character in the novel becomes bad, good, frustrated, illuminated, or killed by someone.
