PSYC 0315 - Evolutionary Psychology


Credits: 3

Builds upon the material from PSYC 0215 , with a focus on understanding the behavior of the human animal. We will explore how human psychology can be understood as the result of evolutionary processes by investigating the function of aspects of human physiology and cognition, sexual behavior and preferences, parenting, kin relations, coalition building, cooperative behavior, culture, violence, and other types of behavior.

Prerequisites: PSYC 0101  and PSYC 0219 , and PSYC 0215 .
