Block 1A - Summaries with the course: Developmental psychology

Assortment:

  • Summary with Life-Span Human Development by Sigelman and Rider - 9th edition

Studying Developmental psychology:

  • In developmental psychology you get a bird's eye view of human behavior and how it changes throughout the life course. You see what early childhood behavior says about later development, and discover whether adults and the elderly are still growing and developing. You will be introduced to Pavlov and Piaget and you will learn whether a child's first smile is usually caused by an automatism of the central nervous system - or by successful contact with the mother.
  • Like most introductory subjects, you will only be given a glimpse of the veil and you will probably be left with a vague feeling about it. Don't be discouraged, as the years progress you will gain more and more insight into the relationship with your studies and your appreciation will also grow.

Block 1A - Summaries with the course: Introduction to psychological theories and research methods

Assortment:

  • Summary and ExamTests with Research Methods in Psychology: Evaluating a World of Information by Morling - 4th edition

Studying Introduction to psychological theories and research methods:

  • During this course you will learn to deal with the core concepts and basic principles of research and descriptive statistics. You will be introduced to the concepts of correlationality and validity, and you will learn to break down conspiracy theories.
