2016-2017 Catalog

PSYC 256 Cognitive Psychology I

Cognitive psychology is the study of how humans process (i.e., acquire, store, and use) information. Topics include perception, attention, memory, imagery, problem solving, expertise and other processes that allow us to function in the world. This course will provide you with a survey of the phenomena and theories of human cognition through an exploration of past and present research within the field. We will examine these issues through a combination of lectures, demonstrations, and discussion.
