  • PSYC 371: Creativity, Collaboration, and Human Development

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    Creativity is central to what makes us human. This capstone seminar explores what creativity is, its collaborative nature, and what role it plays in individual, societal and cultural development over time. We will use a Vygotskian and dynamic systems perspective to contextualize the ways creativity has been studied and to explore how creativity stimulates the purposeful generation of ideas and products in the arts, sciences, technology, business, and social institutions. We will examine theory and research as well as case studies to discuss the individual and collaborative experiences, opportunities, challenges, contexts, and effects of creativity.

  • PSYC 374: Couples Therapy Practicum

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    Students in this practicum will learn how to assess and treat the full spectrum of mildly to severely distressed couples. The treatment approach emphasizes fostering intimacy, closeness and mutual acceptance, while at the same time teaching useful communication and problem-solving skills. We will be treating both married and unmarried couples as long as they are currently living together and are not violent. Depending on the number of students in the practicum, students will either treat couples as part of a two-person team or as the sole therapist. Class time will be devoted to group supervision, discussions of the broader issues of couple therapy and a weekly journal club. Students should expect to see between two and three couples over the course of the one-year practicum, with each course of therapy being approximately 20 to 25 sessions. Students in the practicum will learn about the correlates and predictors of marital distress, how to assess a couple's level of distress and commitment, how to formulate and test therapeutic hypotheses over the course of treatment, and how to conduct a very powerful and effective approach to couple therapy. Students should expect to be proficient and capable of proceeding quite independently by the end of this one year practicum.

  • PSYC 375: Societal Approaches to Thinking

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    This capstone seminar provides a theoretical and methodological frame for studying how thinking is shaped by the societal context in which the person is situated, by the social location the person occupies in that context, by the cultural discourses in which he/she participates, and by the nature of what is being thought about. The seminar draws from readings from interdisciplinary sources, including psychology. We start with illustrative works from developmental psychology, sociocultural psychology and social psychology that approach thinking and reasoning in their social and cultural contexts. We also examine some works that do not emphasize the social context of thinking but that examine everyday thinking about social problems. We then discuss interdisciplinary writings that emphasize how societies and cultures are structured internally in terms of gender, race and class, and we examine empirical research on thinking and on personal epistemology that is grounded in this kind of societal framework. The last class of the semester will be a symposium in which each student will present her or his final paper in a 15-minute formal presentation, followed by class discussion.
