Semester Offered: Fall
1 unit(s)

This seminar explores some of the ways in which situational and individual differences variables influence behavior. Using a topical approach, we will examine empirical research in individual differences and social psychology in order to arrive at a more coherent understanding of the specific behaviors under consideration. A central goal of the course is to develop your skills in analyzing, building, and testing psychological models of behavior. Potential topics may include self-regulation, approach and avoidance, and stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination. Jannay Morrow.
