Description

After a brief historical introduction this course will examine the development of humans into distinct individuals who nevertheless function in a social environment. There will be emphasis on the cognitive and social development of the individual through childhood and the development of individual differences in the areas of abilities, personality, attitudes and values will be stressed. Finally, the nature and measurement of the social influences on our behaviour will be considered.
