Morphology
The meaning 'a branch of psychology that studies mental processes' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'cognitive' (relating to mental processes) with 'psychology' (the study of mind/behavior). This is a regular noun–noun compound following standard compositional rules that are cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents should be able to infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Cognitive psychology comes from the words cognitive, which is about thinking, and psychology, which means the study of the mind. Imagine someone watching the steps inside a mind to see how people 'think', 'remember' and 'solve problems', and that's why cognitive psychology means the study of those mental activities.
