授業の概要

Psychology is the scientific study of behaviour and mental processes. Cultural psychology is the recently emerging discipline that investigates to what extent are human behaviour and mental processes universals and to what extent are they shaped by culture. Retackling many of the basic psychological concepts introduced within the introductory psychology course, this cultural psychology course seeks to highlight the important contribution of cultural psychology to psychology in general by challenging psychologists to strive for more complete and richer explanations of the complexities of human behaviour and mental processes, not just as they may function within one culture, but as they function within all cultures.

科目目的

This course seeks to foster a deeper appreciation for the mutual constitution of culture and mind by reconsidering some of the fundamental concepts of psychology. In particular, it re-examines in greater detail some central theories of psychology, such as self and personality, emotions and motivation, thinking and language, and social interactions. In demonstrating how behaviour and mental processes must be examined within the cultural context, the course also aims to encourage students to reflect on how their behaviour and mental processes are culturally-bound.

到達目標

This course aims to build on a number of basic psychological concepts covered in the introductory psychology [taught during the spring semester], from the perspective of cultural psychology. Accordingly, students who are interested in taking this cultural psychology course during the autumn semester will have ideally completed the introductory psychology course in the spring semester.
