Requisites:
This course provides an introduction to major concepts in biology, chemistry and physics. The four areas of study are Energy and Matter in Chemical Change, Energy Flow in Technological Systems, Cycling of Matter in Living Systems and Energy Flow in Global Systems.
This course focuses on understanding the concepts and theories underlying assessment, diagnosis and treatment modalities of various psychological disorders, with emphasis on the multimodal treatment approach.
This course will be a survey and interpretation of theories and findings in the field of emotion and motivation. It is designed primarily for serious students of theoretical psychology and the behavioural sciences, students interested in their own intellectual growth and development, and students who wish to understand human behaviour. This course will describe and evaluate the scientific method and the process of theory building in psychology, a selection of theories on motivation and emotions, and an application of these theories to individual behaviour.
The general orientation of this course is the basic research perspective of the scientific definition, investigation, and modeling of the structures and processes of attention, perception, learning, memory, cognition, and consciousness. It is a course in the current established research traditions, theories, and paradigms of cognitive psychology.
Students will examine the developmental, cognitive, biological, and behavioural processes involved in the development of various psychological disorders of children and adolescents with emphasis on causality, assessment, and treatment.
This course will involve a balanced coverage and critical analysis of both male and female issues. Material will be drawn from empirical research and conceptual discussions surrounding gender and gender roles. Examples of topics include the impact of stereotypes of masculinity and femininity, and gender in relation to power relations, mental health, intelligence, sexuality, violence, and caregiving. Are men and women really all that different? If so, how significant are the differences? Implications of similarities and differences will be discussed.
This course is an introductory survey of representative theoretical points of view and research relevant to the major problems of the study of personality.
This course is designed as an introductory course in quantitative research methods and statistics in psychology. Its primary goal is to direct students' development in critical thinking skills. Students will be able to make independent judgments and decisions based on reason and evidence as opposed to authority, tradition or opinion. The course will cover topics such as using objective measurement-based and inferential research strategies to develop hypotheses, designing appropriate data collection tools, analyzing and interpreting descriptive and inferential statistical results, and writing research reports and proposals.
This course examines human sexuality from biopsychological, developmental, behavioural, and psycho social perspectives. Students will learn about healthy and unhealthy sexuality and its potential psychological consequences on individuals and society.
