PSYCHOLOGY 305 - Cognitive Psychology.Every Fall

Institution:

Franklin and Marshall College

Subject:

Description:

In this course we will ask how some familiar human behaviors seeing, classifying, remembering, speaking, reasoning are possible. We will learn how cognitive scientists go about answering these questions, and what some of the classic answers are. The idea is both to introduce some key findings in cognitive psychology, and to develop the skills to understand and critically evaluate cognitive psychology research. In addition to lectures, the course will include hands-on experiments and demonstrations; student presentations of individual journal articles; and debates about the broader implications of some cognitive psychology research. Prerequisite: PSY 100 or permission. Corequisite: PSY 230 or BIO 210. Same as SPM 305. M. Anderson
