About the Course

What are people most afraid of? What do our dreams mean? Are we natural-born racists? What makes us happy? What are the causes and cures of mental illness? 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, persuasion, emotions, and social behavior. 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....

I highly recommend this course to anyone willing to understand about the basic history and origins of psychology, scientific approach but full of insights and inspiration to go further in the matter.

The sole disappointment with this lecture is its brevity. I fervently hope for more courses or lectures of this nature in the future.

「Introduction to Psychology」課程深入淺出,生動有趣。老師以實例生動呈現心理學基礎概念,引導學生深入理解人類行為和心智過程。強調互動學習,讓我在深度思考中受益匪淺。不論是對專業知識的初步了解還是對人類心理的深入探討,這門課是引領的極佳選擇!
