PSY 3036 - Psychology And Culture

Institution:

CUNY Bernard M Baruch College

Subject:

Description:

3 hours; 3 credits Taking a cross-cultural perspective, this course is designed to introduce several major content areas of psychology, including (but not limited to) cognitive, developmental, social, and personality psychology. Much of what psychologists believe comes from studies that involve participants who are white, middle-class American college students. Recent cross-cultural studies have suggested, however, that what was learned from these investigations may not be universally true. By employing a cross-cultural perspective, this course attempts to broaden and deepen the understanding of the human mind and human behavior, going beyond what students learn in introductory psychology classes. Prerequisite: PSY 1001 or ANT 1001.
