Meritnation experts kindly explain me meaning of circle words in a sheet of paper only i need meanings also explain me the paragraph as shown i am struggling and unable to understand???

Dear Student

The word 'psychology' here refers to the logical approach of the teachers to the problem faced by the narrator. His old teachers were making an effort to encourage him to love the new school. The narrator understood this tactic and decided to be comforted by their words, though he was doubtful about it. Therefore, his doubt and temporary comfort in their words is best described by the word 'nonetheless'.

Regards.
