  • PSYC 120: Introduction to Cognition

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    The course provides an overview of some of the cognitive functions that comprise our mental life as we function in the world, such as thinking, concepts, memory, attention, language, problem solving and decision making. We examine the mental processes that underlie these functions, and how those aspects of thought are interconnected. The objective of the course is to acquaint students with some of the concepts and findings cognitive psychologists have developed and to stimulate critical thinking about different theoretical approaches to psychology and about ways in which work from cognitive psychology can contribute to an understanding of human functioning in social and cultural context. The assumptions underlying the perspective of cognitive psychology are discussed and the extensions and contributions of that approach to sociocultural, clinical and developmental questions are explored.
