Continuation of Psych 640. Introduction to analysis of variance and correlational techniques, related to the general problem of inference in the social sciences. Prerequisite: Psych 640.

An overview of systems neuroscience, with special emphasis on cognition, including perception, recognition, attention, and motor control. Includes both theoretical and lab components covering neuroanatomy, neurohistology, brain imaging, and behavioral analysis.

This advanced seminar course will introduce theories and empirical research aimed at understanding psychological processes in diverse groups, as well as explaining the causes and consequences of identity-related differences. Topics covered include disparities in health and mental health, social identity, power and marginalization, and developmental processes across social and cultural contexts. We will also explore the nature of and future directions for multicultural psychology and diversity science.

This course covers the neural circuits and biochemical mechanisms underlying the body's response to stress and the impact of stress on mental health. In place of a textbook, assigned readings include peer-reviewed research and review articles, with the primary focus on preclinical studies using animal models.

This advanced seminar course will introduce students to theories and research focused on the development of intergroup cognition across childhood, with a particular emphasis on exploring how research in developmental science can be used to reduce race-based stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination.

Time is nature's way of making sure everything doesn't happen at once, or so the saying goes. Why can you wake up at about the same time without an alarm clock? Why do you feel so bad when you are jet-lagged? This seminar will use current research literature to explore the mechanisms by which our brains (and bodies) tell time, and what happens when they don' work correctly, from weight gain, to altered immune responses, to cognitive and behavioral problems.
