About this course
This course provides an overview of the major theories and findings in research on the psychology of human motivation and learning. Various approaches to understanding motivation and learning will be addressed, including biological (e.g., instincts), behavioral (e.g., conditioning) and social/cognitive (e.g., goals) approaches. While the overall emphasis is on the theoretical foundations of psychology as they relate to human learning and behavior, the relevance of course material to various applied domains (e.g., education, the workplace, health, athletics) will be discussed where possible. (Students cannot receive credit for both PSY 3067 and PSY3065.)This course will be a foundational elective for both psychology minors and BBA in I/O psychology majors; it may also be used as a general elective for the BA, BBA, or BS degrees. Prerequisite: PSY 1001
