PSYC-233 : Neuropsychology

This course is designed to provide you with a fundamental understanding of neuropsychological concepts, principles and issues. We will critically examine the clinical and experimental approaches used in the study of human brainbehavior relations, their influence in generating research questions and their contribution to the understanding of the brain's functional and structural organization. The paradigms that we will examine are organized around the idea that a host of sociocultural, biological, psychological and spiritual factors influences brain functions. Diversity topics (e.g., gender, race/ethnicity, religion, SEP, age) and brain health are considered in the context of these biopsychosocial and spiritual factors.
