Description:

This course is designed to allow the individual student the opportunity to develop an understanding of human behavior in its origins, development and manifestations. The three major theories - psychoanalysis, behaviorism and humanism - are presented so that the student is knowledgeable in their major tenets. Students also determine their own views of these schools and why they find them acceptable or unacceptable. The course also proposes to alert the student to signs and symptoms of mental distress in themselves, their families, friends and co-workers. What to do about stress is also considered in terms of seeking the simplest solution first. Applications of this information on both a personal and professional level are introduced and discussed.
