PSYC951: Advanced Issues in Social and Personality Psychology |
This unit will focus on bio-social models of personality including genetic mechanisms, and neuropsychological models of individual differences. We will be seeking reductionist explanations of normal and abnormal behaviour: explanations which explain abnormal behaviour in the terms of normal personality functions. Examples of this strategy include normal models of depression and vulnerability for serious mental illness. Differences in intelligence may also be covered.
