Lecture 1 – Introduction
Paul Bloom
What do your dreams mean? Do men and women differ in the nature and intensity of their sexual desires? Can apes learn sign language? Why can’t we tickle ourselves? This course tries to answer these questions and many others, providing a comprehensive overview of the scientific study of thought and behavior. It explores topics such as perception, communication, learning, memory, decision-making, religion, persuasion, love, lust, hunger, art, fiction, and dreams. We will look at how these aspects of the mind develop in children, how they differ across people, how they are wired-up in the brain, and how they break down due to illness and injury.
This course make me a little bit understand about psychology, but the problem is it using by native speaker. Yale University open course give the number of course in knowledge of multiple dicipline. I like it and to implove my english this part is the right place for taking aunderstand both English and Psychology like you go to overseas’s campus.
