Parenting is both universal and deeply shaped by culture, history, and social context. This seminar examines parenting through a developmental science lens, highlighting attachment, socialization, co-parenting, intergenerational influences, and the impact of stress, poverty, and technology. Students will consider how cultural values, systemic inequities, and shifting norms influence what it means to raise children today. Class meetings combine critical discussion of research with hands-on opportunities to design and carry out original research on parenting. Students are recommended to have taken 200, 202, 203, or 204 prior to PSYC 490.

This course will provide you with an opportunity to learn about growth and development throughout the human lifespan. We will use psychological theories and research to examine physical, cognitive and psychosocial development, while appreciating the important role of biological and cultural factors. Lifespan development is a very broad area, and we will not be able to cover all possible topics. We will instead focus on thinking critically, making meaningful connections between topics, and understanding diversity within development. The different topics and theoretical approaches we cover will enable you to have an integrated understanding of lifespan development. This introduction to developmental norms and differences will support the aspiring nurse’s ability to help patients navigate life events and stages. Connections to healthcare contexts will be highlighted. Students cannot receive credit for both PSYC 102 and PSYC 202. PSYC 102 cannot count toward the developmental perspective requirement of the PSYC major. Prerequisite: PSYC 111

Sample topics include (but will not be limited to) specific aspects of consciousness (e.g. Sleep and Cognition), memory (e.g. eyewitness memory or memory distortion), social cognition (e.g. stereotyping), developmental cognition (e.g. language development), cognitive neuroscience (e.g. brain mechanisms underlying attention), comparative cognition (e.g. animal language), and applied cognition (e.g. human-computer interaction). Prerequisite: PSYC 111 and PSYC 212 or permission of the instructor.

Writing Intensive
This course explores psychology's past with a special focus on events representing the discipline's sustained interest in applying science to enhance human welfare. From its early days, U.S. psychologists have applied our discipline's knowledge to solve social problems. This course examines psychology's complicity, in its early years, with questionable cultural practices and unjust social norms (e.g. the eugenics movement, racial bias). We also study the social/historical context surrounding psychology's early applications. The goal is to promote reflection on the place of psychology in the broader culture and raise awareness of the complexities inherent in using science to solve social problems, in the service of preparing students to be "morally responsible leaders who think critically, act wisely, and work skillfully to advance the common good." Prerequisites: Senior standing and declared Psychology major

Writing in the Discipline
Parenting is both universal and deeply shaped by culture, history, and social context. This seminar examines parenting through a developmental science lens, highlighting attachment, socialization, co-parenting, intergenerational influences, and the impact of stress, poverty, and technology. Students will consider how cultural values, systemic inequities, and shifting norms influence what it means to raise children today. Class meetings combine critical discussion of research with hands-on opportunities to design and carry out original research on parenting. Students are recommended to have taken PSYCH 200, 202, 203, or 204 prior to FAST 400.
