Social and Personality Development
In this course we will review theories and empirical research on children's social and personality development towards a deeper understanding of two key issues. How do children change and develop over time? How do children come to differ from one another? We will consider individual differences, as well as socio-contextual and cultural factors. In addition to the text, students will read empirical papers, engage in critical thinking and discussion about the material, and make applications to everyday issues in life. (PSYC 0105 and PSYC 0225; not open to first year students; open to junior and senior psychology majors; others by permission) 3 hrs. lect.
