YALE PSYC 110 - Introduction to Psychology (Spring, 2007)

YALE PSYC 110 - Introduction to Psychology with Professor Paul Bloom

author:Paul Bloom, Department of Psychology, Yale University

What do your dreams mean? Do men and women differ in the nature and intensity of their sexual desires? Can apes learn sign language? Why can’t we tickle ourselves? This course tries to answer these questions and many others, providing a comprehensive overview of the scientific study of thought and behavior. It explores topics such as perception, communication, learning, memory, decision-making, religion, persuasion, love, lust, hunger, art, fiction, and dreams. We will look at how these aspects of the mind develop in children, how they differ across people, how they are wired-up in the brain, and how they break down due to illness and injury.

I do enjoy all the posted lecture because I am a student of psychology at the age of 65. However, I would appreciate it if the good professor could give us something on personality.

Thanks
HMS
