I teach a number of classes on a semi-regular basis. Syllabi for these classes are available to students in the classes on Blackboard.  The class I teach most often is Psychology 330, Social Psychology. This class focuses on the causes and consequences of social thought, emotion, and behavior (note: For some web links to sites related to social psychology, click on my 'personal' section). I also teach Psychology 100, Introductory Psychology. This class covers a broad array of topics within the field of psychology, including biological foundations of behavior, memory, psychological disorders, and cognitive psychology, to name just a few.  I have also taught both of the research methods classes, Psychology 285, and Psychology 385. These classes focus on how the field of psychology gains knowledge through the use of the scientific method. Finally, I also teach Psychology 630, an advanced Social Psychology course. This is a graduate level course that goes into much greater depth into the various areas of social psychology.

Experimental Research Participation:  Students currently enrolled in my PSY 100 or PSY 330 courses may receive extra credit for participation in Experimental Research.  Most extra credit opportunities in the summer will be announced in class.  If some researchers use the website, Sona-Systems, to list experiments, then you can go to register and sign up for these experiments at the following website:  Sona-Systems
