Popper's «Logic of Knowledge» and «Psychology of Knowledge»

I'm having a little trouble understanding the difference between both concepts that Popper gives: Logic of Knowledge and Psychology of Knowledge. I only read them on a little snippet from Popper's «Logic of Scientific Knowledge» (I think that is the name in English) for my logic class at university. I didn't quite understand how Popper differentiates them and I haven't yet seen my professor again to be able to ask him — he has been sick, so contacting him hasn't been possible too.

I was going to try and say what I think it is so that you guys had something to expand upon, but I really can't even process any form of thought about it, sorry about this.

Thanks in advance! :)

What's the actual distinction, for Popper, between Logic of Knowledge and Psychology of Knowledge?

We're reading a small section of Popper's Logic of Scientific Knowledge in my Logic class and, in that small section, he distinguishes between Logic of Knowledge and Psychology of Knowledge — I'm not sure if that's how it is said in English —, but I wasn't yet able to understand their distinction.

Thanks in advance! :)
