| Description: | Mindfulness is a term that is becoming increasingly used in popular culture to refer to a set of skills associated with increased attentional focus, successful stress-management, and improved health, sleep, and emotional well-being. This course will expose students to the various facets of mindfulness from both an applied and scientific perspective, both through the teaching of mindfulness skills through a set of easy-to-learn practices and exercises, and through a survey of empirical research regarding mindfulness effects on cognition, emotion, brain function, and health. The goal of the seminar will be to provide practical skills that can contribute to personal development, emotional well-being, and academic success, while also developing critical thinking skills in learning how to read and evaluate primary scientific literature on mindfulness.

In addition, students must attend all seminar meetings both semesters for discussion of assigned readings and presentations on autism and therapy. Completion of a paper is required in the second semester. For details, see the brochure "Practicum in Applied Behavior Analysis: Autism Spectrum Disorder," available from the Department, or online at https://psychweb.wustl.edu/files/psychweb/imce/practicum_2017-2018.pdf. This course can only be taken once for credit, and can be begun either in the fall or in the spring semester. Credit/No Credit only.

| Description: | This course will provide a broad introduction to neuroscience, starting at the level of cellular and molecular neuroscience, and ultimately ending at systems and theoretical neuroscience, with emphasis on the organization of the mammalian central nervous system. Topics will include neuronal structure, the action potential, information transmission between neurons, sensory/motor systems, emotion, memory, disease, drugs, behavior, and network dynamics. A fundamental goal of this course is to provide students with the ability to approach complex problems using the scientific method and to understand the limits of knowledge. This course will also expose students to some of the neuroscience community at WashU. Bio 2960, Bio 2970 recommended, Bio 3058 recommended or Psych 3401 and permission of instructor.

| Description: | Emotions both shape and are shaped by our subjective experiences, physiology, behaviors, cognitions, social interactions, and health. Their complexity and significance make the study of emotions particularly exciting and challenging. This course offers an overview of theory and research on emotions with content stretching across psychological disciplines, including personality, social, clinical, developmental, and neuropsychology. Course content will include definitions of emotions, physiological changes associated with emotions, and individual differences in emotional experience. The course will also examine how culture, cognitions, and relationships affect and are affected by emotion and how emotion is related to physical and mental health. PREREQ: Psych 100B. |

| Description: | This course will develop critical thinking and analysis skills with regard to topics in Cognitive, Computational and Systems Neuroscience. Course format will be a series of modules composed of intensive, faculty-led case studies on interdisciplinary topics at the intersection of psychology, computation and neuroscience. The goal will be to highlight the benefits of integrative, interdisciplinary approaches, by delving into a small set of topics from a variety of perspectives, rather than providing a survey-level introduction to a broader set of topic areas. Modules will involve a combination of lectures and student-led discussion groups, with students further expected to complete a multi-disciplinary integrative final review paper. Case-study topics will vary somewhat from year to year, but are likely to include some of the following: temporal coding as a mechanism for information processing, coordinate transformations in sensory-motor integration, mechanisms of cognitive control, motor control strategies including application to neural prosthetics, and memory systems in health and disease. PREREQ: Graduate standing. |

| Description: | In this seminar, we will examine a number of contemporary topics in stereotyping and prejudice that have occupied the attention of psychologists over the last 10-15 years. The main focus of the seminar will be on the underlying cognitive and affective processes that govern the expression vs. inhibition of category-based associations. A sample of topics that might be included are: prototype vs. exemplar based models of social categories, the role of automaticity vs. control and methods for teasing these mechanisms apart, "explicit" vs. "implicit" measures of stereotyping, the role of private vs. public settings in regulating stereotype use, ironic effects of suppression, stereotype change, among other topics. Along the way we shall consider research and theory drawing from other areas, including cognitive psychology, personality, and political science. Readings will draw mainly from empirical articles and book chapters. PREREQ: Graduate standing in psychology or permission from instructor. |
