Description

Research on the brain is expanding continually, and is affecting theories, models, and research paradigms across all psychological fields. This class will introduce students to various areas of brain research in psychology, with an emphasis on learning about the functions of and interactions among various brain areas. The emphasis will be practical, however, as students learn to understand themselves, their relationships, and their possible future clients from the standpoint of how their brains work (and often fail to work). Prerequisite(s): PSY 101
