PSYCH 785: Seminar in Developmental Psychology
3
This course will review and discuss major conceptual approaches to the study of development through the lifespan, from conception to death, in the domains of cognition, personality and social-emotional processes. Course draws on theories and research in the physical and social sciences. Important empirical studies will be reviewed and their strengths, limitations and implications for theories of normative and successful human development will be discussed. The course will meet three broad objectives: (1) develop an appreciation for the existing psychological research on human development; (2) foster critical reflection about the current status and future directions; and (3) develop research background specific to the students' own areas of developmental psychology interest.
Admission to the MS Psychology Program or Instructor Consent.
