This course focuses on how, from early in life, people start making judgments and decisions in their social lives—as well as why they can sometimes act in biased and/or sub-optimal ways. Social judgments can take many forms, such as deciding whether someone is real or not real, similar to or different from others, worth trusting or avoiding, better or worse than others, and so on. We will examine the roles that age, mental capacities, and context can play in shaping the ways in which we evaluate other individuals.

This course is a comprehensive study of the field of sport and performance psychology that is informed by current research and contemporary practice. We will explore learning, motivation, and social interaction in sport, mental training skills for performance enhancement, and the enhancement of health and well-being for the athletes through sport psychology. The prevention and reporting of misconduct and abuse within sport is discussed. We will also consider the application of mental training skills for optimal performance outside of the context of sport. Students will be expected to develop a psychological skills training program as part of the course.

Drawing on research in communities throughout the world, it considers how cultural values, beliefs, and goals of development shape everyday life. Prereq: Psyc 402; 502; 581; or permission. WI.
