	PSY-533 Foundations of Media Psychology 4 semester credits Media psychology is the application of psychological theory and research to the analysis of media and technology use, development and impact. This course introduces six major domains in psychology–cognitive, social, developmental, biological/neuroscience, individual differences and positive–to provide a foundation for approaching media technologies from multiple dimensions. We will spend time exploring the question “what is media psychology” to think about why a definition matters and to give students the chance to examine their assumptions about media and technology. Each week we will address different topics in the current media landscape, such as social media, collective behaviors, games, media immersion, transmedia messaging, mobile devices and global impact, to see how different perspectives in psychology provide relevant theoretical and practical anchors. In every area, we will be evaluating media technologies based on: 1) inherent physical and psychological attributes; 2) impact on individuals and society; 3) design implications; and 4) user experience. The final project will focus on media’s ability to leverage ideas, cross boundaries, and connect people applied to the question: how can media technologies create social change?

	PSY-704 Theories of Personality 4 semester credits The goal of this class is to develop an understanding of the conceptual and empirical bases of key theories of personality. The multitude of personality theories has been organized into five main approaches: cognitive-behavioral, humanistic-existential, narrative, psychoanalytic, and psychometric/descriptive. Each approach or school shares a set of basic assumptions about what people are like, their motives, course of development, and sources of change. Central to this course is your understanding of the shared issues across theories as well points of commonality and uniqueness. Delivery Method: Distance/Electronically Mediated Grading Default: Letter Note: Elective Learning Outcome(s): Be able to articulate the core assumptions of major schools of personality: cognitive-behavioral, existential-humanistic, psychoanalytic, and psychometric/descriptive approaches such as trait theories and the five-factor model. Recognize and discuss the similarities and differences across personality theories and consider the benefits and limitations of integrative approaches. Recognize and provide support for the strengths and limitations of a given theory when it comes to addressing the full range of human diversity. Be able to critically report upon and evaluate the empirical support for constructs from specific approaches to personality.

	PSY-706 Cognitive and Affective Bases of Behavior 4 semester credits This broadly conceived course includes knowledge derived from history, philosophy, early psychology, and contemporary neuroscience. Some of its foci, notably involving the nature of consciousness, address questions that remain insufficiently answered and possibly ultimately unanswerable by those with human brains and nervous systems. Students investigate how human behavior is shaped and modulated by cognition, affect, and their interaction. The course includes theories and empirical bases of learning, perception memory, language, motivation, affect, emotion, and executive function, as well as factors that influence cognitive performance and emotional experience and their interaction. Topics include (1) contemporary perceptual, cognitive and affective neuroscience, (2) false and distorted memories, (3) the nature of consciousness, (4) basic emotions, (5) culture, gender, cognition and affect, and (6) interrelationships among cognitions/beliefs, behavior, affect, temperament, and mood.

	PSY-707 Biological Bases of Behavior 4 semester credits This course surveys the structural and functional relations of the central nervous system, physiology, sensory processes, and behavior. Study is divided into two subsections: (1) physiological psychology and (2) evolution, genetics, and behavior. Students become familiar with the biology of memory and the biological/genetic aspects of psychiatric disorders. Knowledge of the functioning of the brain at the anatomical, cellular, and molecular levels underpins any understanding of behavior. Biological Bases of Behavior provides fundamental knowledge of brain functions in the interest of providing an understanding of the foundational grounding from which all behavior comes. Attention is paid to the physiology of the brain; the environmental, genetic and evolutionary influences on the brain; and the ways in which the brain processes information, records emotions, and instantiates memory and learning. The course includes an understanding of how information from the environment is processed, the underlying mechanisms of affect and reinforcement, how experience can alter the brain, and what limitations are imposed on an individual following neural damage. It also includes a solid understanding of the evolution of mechanisms involved in behavior, as well as the putative mechanisms of medications in the brain. Delivery Method: Distance/Electronically Mediated Grading Default: Letter Note: This course is only open to Clinical or Media PhD students or RCP certificate students. Cannot be taken in conjunction with PSY-706. Learning Outcome(s): Know the major anatomical areas of the brain, their evolutionary significance, and their putative functions, and the structure and function of a neuron. Know the mechanisms of information processing at the cellular and molecular levels and the mechanisms of learning and memory at the cellular, molecular, and anatomical levels. Know the influences of heredity and environment on brain development and functioning, pre-and post-partum and through the life span. Know how the brain regulates bodily and brain functions, and how behaviors arise from the biochemical functions at the molecular level, including the transduction of stimuli into information and the generation of responses to internal and external environments.
	PSY-708 Psychopathology 4 semester credits This course examines approaches to the systematic description of psychological disorders: historical, sociopolitical, ethno-racial, gender, age, SES, medical, behavioral, and epidemiological. Topics include the nosological system (DSM-5), the differential diagnoses among its subcategories, etiology, possible alternatives to the existing system, and research in this field. Delivery Method: Distance/Electronically Mediated Grading Default: Letter Note: Certificate students with a graduate level clinical psychology course in psychopathology within the last 5 years may have this course waived, although they will be expected to complete a half-day workshop on DSM-5 if their prior course did not cover DSM-5. This course can only be taken by post-bacc certificate students or Clinical PhD students. Learning Outcome(s): Be familiar with the historical evolution of definitions of psychopathology. Be familiar with the various nosological systems (including DSM-IV and general proposals for the DSM-5 revision). Understand the strengths and weaknesses of the present and past nosological systems based on research findings. Understand diverse viewpoints of psychopathology from the perspective of major theoretical orientations.
