PS 032 Emotion (Fall/Spring: 3)
Satisfies Social Sciences Core Requirement
Does not provide credit toward completion of the Psychology major.
This course examines the scientific study of emotion for undergraduate students
with no background in psychology. Topics include such questions as: What
are the functions of emotion, interpersonally and intrapersonally? What
are some ways that emotions can be dysfunctional? Are emotions the same
across cultures? How do we know what someone else is feeling? How does emotion
interact with decision-making? In addressing these questions, we will incorporate
discussions of how psychological experiments are constructed, performed,
and interpreted.
