About the Course

What are people most afraid of? What do our dreams mean? Are we natural-born racists? What makes us happy? What are the causes and cures of mental illness? This course tries to answer these questions and many others, providing a comprehensive overview of the scientific study of thought and behavior. It explores topics such as perception, communication, learning, memory, decision-making, persuasion, emotions, and social behavior. We will look at how these aspects of the mind develop in children, how they differ across people, how they are wired-up in the brain, and how they break down due to illness and injury....

This course is very insightful and I have learned quite a lot. My favourite area though is Clinical Psychology and Positive Psychology. I believe I will be better able to understand persons around me.

An excellent course to get a general idea about psychology as well as understanding of what to do next if you are into learning more. Very useful links for extra reading. And very engaging instructor.

Professor Bloom has totally outdone himself. Thank you! But now I'm not sure if that is confirmation bias.

這門課讓我對生活中不同類型的人有更完整的認知,也學習到如何觀察寶寶的心理狀態,以他們的角度觀察牠們的行為,以做出更加完善的措施。我也從這門課了解到記憶模式,相信能為我未來課堂上理解的短期記憶更有效的轉為長期記憶。
