PY 242 Experimental Psychology I

(4 Credits)
This course is designed to expose students to basic research practices commonly used in non-human and human psychological research. Students will learn how to read and evaluate primary literature, incorporate information from multiple sources, and apply that knowledge to their own research proposal. Students will obtain hands-on experience collecting data from non-human and human subjects and develop their writing and communication skills. This course includes lectures, class discussions, team projects, and experiential activities. This course requires attendance and participation as many weeks involve in-person data collection and development of team projects.

Every Semester

Prerequisite: PY 111   and PY 142  ; concurrent registration in either course is allowed only with instructor approval.
