HP4251 HUMAN MOTIVATION

This course looks at the question of why people are motivated to think and act in the ways that they do. In order to answer this question, we will study human motivation using a combination of various perspectives, such as biological, social, personality, developmental, and cognitive areas of psychology. You should take this course if you are a psychology major student who is interested in developing a more in-depth understanding of how to study and assess human motivation and what pertinent factors affect motivation in real world settings, such as education, the workplace, and in inter-personal relationships. The course is discussion and writing intensive and will be conducted in a format that promotes analysis and in-depth review of classical and current motivation research.
