This course will focus on academic research associated with emotional processes and emotion regulation. Specifically, we will answer questions like: What are emotions, and why are they important? How are emotions communicated, and how do researchers measure them? How do emotions influence one's thinking ability, and visa-versa? What is emotion regulation? How do people differ in terms of their overall happiness and well-being, the degree to which they seek/avoid positive/negative experiences, and how they try to control their emotions? And what brain mechanisms are involved in emotional processing and emotion regulation?
