Psychology 335 - Research Metholds in Gender and Sexuality

Institution:

Dickinson College

Subject:

Description:

This course addresses the methodological principles underlying empirical psychological research on gender and sexuality. We will specifically consider qualitative methods as they are used within psychology. Because the study of gender in particular has been strongly guided by feminist theory, this course will focus on feminist epistemologies as related to social psychological research. Class and lab time will be spent developing the following skills: critical reading and analysis of published research, design of empirical research, data collection, and qualitative data analysis. This course will culminate in the design and implementation of an original research project in the area of psychology of gender or human sexuality. Prerequisites: 201 and 202, and either 135 or 145, or permission of the instructor.
