An excellent course to get a general idea about psychology as well as understanding of what to do next if you are into learning more. Very useful links for extra reading. And very engaging instructor.

Very engaging and easy to follow for someone who has no background on psychology. It gives a good introduction of different areas of psychology. It uses very nice videos of experiments to illustrate some concepts which I found very useful. I also liked the animation which makes it very visual and easy to memorize/remember.

I enjoyed the online course. It was surprisingly manageable, considering my initial apprehension about online learning. Professor Bloom was an engaging instructor, and meeting course requirements was less daunting than expected. I gained valuable insights, and this is just the beginning of my pursuit of further education.

I spent my weeks reading and listening to this course over and over again. I don't know how much it is worth to me, but somehow, my foundation about psychology has been extended as I believed. As a freshman who majoring in psychology in general. I hope coursera will add more course that is relevent to this one. Thank you.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I have always been fascinated with psychology and this course surpassed my expectations. I have learnt a lot in the context of how the human mind works and of our behaviour. Child psychology, developmental psychology and mental illnesses were my favourite.10/10 course, I highly recommend.

Professor Bloom is very engaging. For most of the time I wasn't even thinking that I was studying. It was a journey where I came to know myself in a much better way. I am a mechanical undergrad. I think psychology has helped me to better understand my actions and why I do. Thank you very much Coursera and Processor Bloom.

Out of all the courses that I completed or at least attempted this one is for sure my favorite. I spend a great time listening to the lectures, they were extremely interesting and contained lots of examples that helped understand the concepts better. I also liked the design of this course. Thank you very much, Pr. Bloom!

Prof Paul Bloom is extremely Engaging! I am so glad I took up this course. I wish I had the financial means to pursue a degree in the subject at Yale. I would like to thank Coursera and Yale University and most importantly prof. Bloom for making it possible for students like myself to learn despite monitory limitations.

I'm leaving this course with a lot to remember, meditate, question, and of course a great insight on many aspects of psychology, backed with various literature and scientific references to dig in topics of interest. I really appreciated the way Pr. Bloom puts things together, which has opened a new world to me. Thanks!

The videos were great. I liked the ability to highlight parts of the transcriptions and save them as notes. The transcriptions had a lot of errors in them, but not a big problem. The readings were great too. The quiz questions, though few in number, were challenging enough that you had to really think before answering.

I wanted to say thank you to my professors: Paul Bloom, Brooks and Suzanne. It was a dream I had for more than a decade that became true. The dream is not in its accomplishment yet but in my psychology, I can see the light. Thank you for your sacrifice. J en suis reconnaissant ! Thank you, thank you et merci beaucoup!

I have learned almost all the concepts of Psychology. They helped me to understand my subjects in a better way. Now, I can improve my teaching and give appropriate examples based on the students, students' mood, environment, and level. I am so grateful to Prof. Paul Bloom, and Yale University and Coursera.
Thank you.

Fine course. I very much appreciated the instructor's easy way of speaking. Easy to relate to. I liked the animation for sure. Would have liked him more on screen as he is effective that way. Overall, grateful that I registered and spent time learning so much wonderful material I would not have accessed otherwise.

I never took a course on psychology so I can'r say anything about the breadth and depth of the material in relation to other introductory courses. What I can say is that as measured by my receptivity and perceptivity, Professor Bloom is an exceptional lecturer. I would have binge-watched the course if I could have.

I absolutely loved it! I was looking for academic psychology class that teaches basic knowledge. This was exactly what I was looking for. It gave me a lot of perspective regarding human psychology, how the ming works and what cognition is. I cannot believe that you can take such an informative, amazing class for free!

The best course I've ever taken, everything was so clear, the explanations, the examples, the videos, the drawings. One of the things I enjoyed the most was how Professor Bloom explain things, his point of view is merely objective and human.
Thank you so so much, (Maybe my inspiration to study Psychology in the future)

This course and Professor Bloom provides a great foundation to those who are interested in understanding psychology or even for an average person who can learn a lot through applications in their daily lives. The course ended on a great note as well through understanding the basic aspects on how people view Happiness.

This is an amazing course that allows you to dive headfirst into the world of psychology in a minimal amount of time. With each lecture and topic, your interest grows, and by the end of the course you are so engaged that you can't even believe that it was all taught remotely. Thank you very much for this opportunity!

Great course! Content clearly segmented per topics, good timing set to cover each - allows to grasp the essence and not get overwhelmed at the same time. It was great that all content is presented from two different sides, taking into account various aspects and embracing critical thinking. Really enjoyed the course!

Professor Bloom is a very engaging and knowledgeable lecturer. The course is very well presented and each segment is split into bite size easily absorbable pieces. Personally I learnt a lot, some of which is thought provoking, others confirming what I already knew, but putting them in a structured scientific context.

Great course! Very engaging and triggers interest for further research and learning! A deep overview of various topics. Very useful to have a better understanding of the subject but also general knowledge. I recommend 100%! Professor Bloom keeps your attention through the entire course, I'm sad it didn't last longer!
