PSY-3480: Learning and Memory

What we know is based on what we learn and remember. How do we learn best and is our memory reliable? What parts of the brain are involved in learning and memory? This course examines the behavioral processes, neuroscience and clinical applications of learning and memory. Topics include conditioning, generalization and discrimination, mechanisms of remembering and forgetting, and emotional influences and social learning. We will explore the theories and research related to learning and memory, challenge their assumptions, and conduct experiments while also applying the concepts to everyday life.
