Demystifying Psychology

A ten-session light-hearted course introducing psychology in everyday life and some of the theories that attempt to explain how and why we do things. The course will include personality types and preferred coping styles; theories and practices applied to drug treatment, raising children, family violence, and other topics as suggested by participants. The course will also include social psychology, the concepts of obedience, power, group dynamics and states of mind. We'll then discuss how we experience the various theories as they play out in daily life.

Sessions - which include both course content and discussion components - are held on the third Friday from 1 to 3 at U3A and the 1st Monday from 10 to 12 pm at 'The Hub'. These are replaced by Zoom sessions if necessary.
