I have taken psychology before so I do know some of this, but it is a wonderful course to take if you are unfamiliar with psychology. She explains things in detail but also uses real life examples to make it easier to visualize.

+ – Perspectives in Psychology
5 lectures 48:34

In this lecture you will become familiar with various definitions of 'psychology' and what branches of psychology have been used in research today. 

What is Psychology
Preview 07:47

The biological approach to psychology simply means that researchers study physiology to understand human behaviour, and how it's all interconnected! 

The Biological Approach
10:01

So what can explain human psychology - the behaviour that is observable or the thinking processes that guide behaviour? Let's discuss it here!

Behaviourist and Cognitive Approaches
09:50

This type of approach is mainly based on 'humanistic' work of Carl Rogers and his followers. It's not only about science, but about a human touch too!

Person-Centred Approaches
08:21

There are several ongoing debates that exist within psychology. They are unresolvable and ongoing because each side has a valid argument for many years now. Let's have a look at them here :)

Debates in Psychology
12:35
+ – Social Psychology
3 lectures 28:33

Why some people like to tell others what to do and others are easy to conform? Social influence is a fascinating area of social psychology to study and research. 

Social Influence: Compliance, Obedience and Conformity
10:10

Social condition is a research area that is concerned with how people think, memories, dream, plan, and anything that is related to using our mind (brains!)

Social Cognition
08:33

In this lecture you will learn how psychology is used directly in various areas of life: hospitals, business, educational institutions and so on. 

Applied Social Psychology
09:50
+ – Cognitive Psychology and Its Applications
9 lectures 01:22:08

We form our perception of others instantly. Or do we? Let's discuss it in this lecture! 

Perception
09:42

Attention means focusing on something that occupies our mind (and perhaps what is in front of us too). How can we keep our attention on something or someone for a longer period of time? 

Attention
07:16

Memory is a very complex process that involves taking in a certain information, processing it, and then storing it in our memory. In this lecture we will discuss this process in a more detail.

Remembering (Memory)
09:38

This lecture is an introduction into the domain of 'research methods'. Research methods encompass many tools and techniques, and we'll start learning about all of that here!

Research Methods in Psychology
Preview 11:55

In this lecture we will continue discussing the topic of 'memory', but with the focus on 'how and why we forget information'. 

Forgetting (Memory)
07:26

Language is what makes us different from animals. We use language to express our feelings, experiences and emotions. Let's discuss when and how we form language. 

Language
10:22

How do we 'think'? What's the difference between 'directed' and 'undirected' thinking? Take this lecture and find out! 

Thinking (Cognition)
07:09

Have you ever been interested in how we form our attitudes? Why do we have such different attitudes with other human beings to the same topics? What makes us so different in our thinking? Let's talk about it here :)

Attitudes
Preview 09:42

When we need to make some decision, we tend to go through an interesting process of specific type of 'thinking'. But what if some 'computer' will do all the thinking for us? Let's talk about 'problem-solving' and 'artificial intelligence' here!

Problem-Solving and Artificial Intelligence
08:58
+ – Child Development
5 lectures 33:01

The 'issues in child development' are connected to the 'debates in psychology' that we were discussing previously, so let's talk about 'Nature Vs Nurture' once again!

Issues in Child Development
05:23

Children develop at different rate, but in a normal healthy development they all go through the same stages of 'cognitive development'. This is what we will be discussing in this lecture! 

Cognitive Development
06:50

When do babies learn to speak? When do children start using correct grammar? Let's learn about it here!

The Development of Language and Communication
06:08

In this lecture you will learn how we form impressions about others, how we influence and get influenced, and so much more!

Social Perception (Interpersonal Perception)
05:33

In this lecture you will learn how do children (and adults!) develop their 'moral understanding', i.e. understanding 'what's right' and 'what's wrong'!

Moral Development
09:07
+ – The Psychology of Atypical (Abnormal) Behaviour
3 lectures 19:38

Where does 'abnormality' starts? When do we know when our behaviour is not 'desirable' or 'accepted' anymore? Let's start with definition of 'abnormality' in this lecture!

The definition and Diagnosis of Atypical (Abnormal) Behaviour
06:44

In this lecture you will learn about various types of treatments that are amiable today in psychiatry and psychology. 

Treatments of atypical (abnormal) behaviour

Emotional disorders
05:28
+ – Research Methods
5 lectures 22:29

In this lecture you will learn about several research methods such as 'interviews', 'surveys', 'case studies', and much more!

Research Methods
06:21

In this lecture you will learn about several issues that you would need to consider when you are undertaking research.

Research Issues
06:03

In this lecture you will learn how to conduct research with both qualitative and quantitative data.
