PSY 200-F2: Statistics I (Fall 2018 Watson)

In this course, you will gain an understanding of descriptive statistics (used to summarize data) and inferential statistics (used to test hypotheses and draw conclusions). You will learn to apply the principles learned during the course to not only to better understand psychology and other fields of scientific research, but also to understand how statistics are used (and sometimes abused) in daily life. Topics will include the properties of numerical distributions, measures of central tendency, variability, correlation, t-tests, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and a tiny (and I mean tiny) bit on nonparametric statistical techniques. I also promise that all these words will make sense by the end of the semester. In addition, you will gain experience using statistical software (SPSS) to analyze and display research data. Finally, you will gain experience in presenting research findings in American Psychological Association (APA) format.

PSY 280-F1: Brain and Behavior (CAS Spring 2025 Watson)

The goal of this course is to introduce a diverse field that is often referred to as “neuroscience”, but has been known by many different names since its birth in the late 1800s. We will survey physiological processes related to behavior and cognition in human and nonhuman species, as well as other biological mechanisms that are relevant to issues in psychology. Topics include basic functional neuroanatomy, neuronal structure and function, & the relationship between brain systems, psychosocial variables, and complex cognitive, perceptual, and emotional processes. We will also discuss neurological, neuropsychological, and psychiatric differences. In addition to serving as a general survey of some of the biological aspects of psychology, this course prepares students for more advanced neuroscience offerings (e.g. Psy 350, Psy 355, Psy 380, Psy 410).

Not open to students with previous credit in PSY 350 or PSY 355.

PSY 355-01: Cognitive Neuroscience (CAS Spring 2025 Watson)

We will cover a variety of foundational and contemporary issues in human neuroscience, and will engage in discussion of scientific methods and techniques used to investigate the relationship between the function of brain systems, behavior, and cognition. The course will primarily emphasize functional neuroanatomy, higher cognitive and emotional function (cognitive and affective neuroscience), the neurobehavioral underpinnings of pathology in humans (clinical neuroscience), and an emerging field known as “positive” neuroscience. Laboratory sections will supplement lecture and reading topics with demonstrations and experience with neuropsychological, cognitive neuroscience, and psychophysiological research techniques. Both the lecture and laboratory portions of this course strongly stress experimental design, data analysis, and scientific reasoning/information literacy. However, we also get to play with brains. Brains are pretty rad.

PSY 365-01: Health and Nature (Spring 2026 Ruckert)

How does our connection to nature shape our mental and physical health? What role do green/blue spaces, wilderness, and environmental conditions play in human well-being? This course explores the intricate relationship between health psychology and nature, examining how our environments influence stress, disease, resilience, and overall psychological functioning. Through readings, lectures, and discussions, we will analyze the benefits of nature exposure, the consequences of environmental degradation, and the psychological dimensions of climate change, including eco-anxiety and climate grief. We will consider diverse perspectives, including Indigenous knowledge systems, evolutionary psychology, and public health frameworks, to understand how nature affects human flourishing across different cultural and socioeconomic contexts. Learning in this course is not a passive process; it requires active engagement with course materials, self-reflection, and collaborative dialogue. Students will be expected to critically engage with scientific research and real-world applications, integrating their own experiences and insights as we construct a shared understanding of the role nature plays in shaping human health. Together, we will explore how fostering a deeper connection with the natural world can serve as both a personal and collective strategy for well-being and sustainability.

This course explores the history and literature of Israelite religion and early Judaism, from circa 538 BCE to 200 CE, with a focus on the development of Judaism in the richly pluralistic context of the Greco-Roman world and its relationship to early Christianity. We will consider evidence of Jewish communities in Egypt, Syria, and Palestine through a range of archaeological remains and religious expressions, including Hebrew scriptures, historical accounts, philosophical treatises, apocalyptic visions, and ancient Jewish novels. The goal of the course is to learn to think critically about religion and origins, religious pluralism, and the encounter between polytheistic and monotheistic traditions, while also developing skills in historical analysis, textual interpretation, and writing. In addition, this course counts toward Bibliographic Research in Writing (BRW) requirements.

RELS 242-F1: Religions/Cultures East Asia (Spring 2019 Starling)

This course will survey the beliefs, practices, and cultural manifestations of the religious traditions of East Asia: Confucianism, Daoism, Chinese folk religion, Mahayana Buddhism, and Shamanism. As we study each tradition in historical context, students will be asked to keep in mind several questions of overarching concern. These themes will inform students’ written reading responses, preparation for class discussion, and essays:

The self and its transformation: How have various East Asian religions understood the self and its potential for spiritual development? What paths for self-cultivation and liberation are offered by these traditions?

Religion and the state: What kinds of relationships have existed between religion and the state in East Asia?

Religious mixing and competition: What has been the relationship between different religious traditions within a particular cultural milieu? In what ways are they competing, and in what ways are they reconciled?

Religion and modernity: How has modernity affected the function and jurisdiction of religion in East Asian countries?

The course is not meant to comprehensively represent East Asian religious traditions, but rather to examine closely a few examples that richly illustrate the complexity of the above questions. Nonetheless, students will develop a strong foundation of knowledge about the religious landscape of East Asia, and a basic understanding of the doctrines and practices of various traditions.

SOAN 110-01: Intro to Cultural Anthropology (Fall 2021 Cameron-Dominguez)

Kim Cameron-Domínguez
FALL 2021: SOAN 110-01 INTRODUCTION TO CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY
MWF @ 9:10 – 10:10am, Miller Center, Room 205

COURSE INTRO: Anthropology is a four-field discipline, but cultural anthropology is the study of lived human experience as it is represented in and by symbolic, material, and virtual culture. Anthropologists, attend closely to everyday relationships between individuals and their immediate communities. Yet, we also study culture in the context of globalization because few individuals or particular cultural formations are isolated (or ever have been!) from broader political, market, and technological shifts. We have some standard and evolving methodological tools to facilitate our research and involvements in . Thus, anthropologists also study the varied forms of structural power that marshal the world’s inhabitants—human and otherwise—into complex networks! Our pace for this class is moderate.
