Convenor: Dr John Wattam-Bell

Email: j.wattam-bell@ucl.ac.uk

Description: Students will be introduced to key conceptual issues, methodological approaches and significant findings in scientific psychology, their historical background, and the kinds of empirical evidence on which these findings are based. Students will be encouraged to think critically and evaluate their own understanding through quizzes and class discussion. A scientific approach will be developed through an appreciation of how empirical data can be used to test competing theories. The course will have six over-arching themes which reflect the current diversity of the discipline. The themes are (1) science of mind and behaviour, including conscious and unconscious mental processes (2) development, including interplay of nature and nurture (3) cognition, including memory, perception, language (4) the brain, including the effects of psychoactive drugs and mental illnesses (5) individual differences, including personality, intelligence and sexuality and (6) social and emotional behaviour, including aggression and relationships

Intermediate Psychology Courses

PSYC2206A HEALTH AND CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY ½ CU

Convenors: Prof Chris Brewin, Prof Valerie Curran, Prof Susan Michie

Emails: c.brewin@ucl.ac.uk, v.curran@ucl.ac.uk, s.michie@ucl.ac.uk

Description: The first part of this course aims to introduce the major theories of the aetiology of psychological and psychiatric disorders, and review research on the treatment of these disorders. The second part examines the major theoretical perspectives and empirical research on the role of psychological and social factors in the aetiology of disease.

The course begins with two introductory lectures, one examining medical models and treatments of 'mental illness', the other examining psychological and social models of psychiatric disorders. The course includes a series of lectures on anxiety disorders, depression and schizophrenia. Individual lectures focus on eating disorders, PTSD, personality disorder, psychopathology which has no medical explanation and drug use/abuse. Themes running through most of the course include both theories and treatments of disorders from biological, cognitive-behavioural, social and psychoanalytic viewpoints.

An overview lecture, explaining the meaning of 'health psychology', introduces the second half of the course. Eleven lectures address core topics in health psychology, including an overview of social psychological influences on health behaviour, and applications of psychological models to the understanding, prevention and treatment of ill-health. The course covers the role of psychological, social and behavioural factors in the onset and maintenance of disease. Individual lectures focus on pain, psychological responses to serious illness, the experience of hospitalisation, smoking and health, and the behaviour of health professionals within the NHS.

PSYC2207A PERCEPTION, ATTENTION AND ACTION ½ CU

Convenor: Prof Alan Johnston

Email: a.johnston@ucl.ac.uk

Description: This course aims to provide a basic understanding of core theoretical issues and experimental findings in the study of a) information processing in the visual and auditory sensory systems, b) the control of complex motor behaviour and c) how attentional processes can mediate between perception and action. The course will cover the basic structure and function of the visual and auditory sensory pathways in the brain. This will include a description of the neural processing in the retino-striate pathway involved in the perception of colour and spatial pattern and a description of the anatomy of the peripheral auditory system in relation to the perception of pitch. The role of visual illusions in understanding visual processing will be examined as will the value of Gibson's ecological perspective on vision. The course will also examine how we perceive depth and distance and how we recognise objects. The role of attention in the perception of visual and auditory information will be examined. In particular, can we ignore irrelevant visual and auditory distractors? What are the effects of attention on mental representation of objects and space and what is the nature of attentional deficits following brain lesions? The course takes an information processing approach to the coordination and regulation of skilled movement covering the control of reaching and grasping, the representations used in the planning of motor behaviour and the role of sensory information in movement control. Speech perception and production will be examined as independent but related topics. Lectures will focus on speech as skilled behaviour and consider speech production problems leading to stuttering and other dysfluencies.

PSYC2301A COMPUTING FOR PSYCHOLOGISTS ½ CU

Convenor: Dr Keith Langley

Email: k.langley@psychol.ucl.ac.uk

Description: This course provides an introduction to computer programming with a bias towards psychological experimentation and research design.

PSYC3203A LANGUAGE & COGNITION ½ CU

Convenor: Dr David Green

Email: d.w.green@ucl.ac.uk

Aims: To discuss current psychological issues and controversies in the area of language and cognition and to help participants think about these issues creatively and constructively.

Objectives: Participants should be able to grasp and to apply fundamental representational and control concepts to questions about how humans make sense of their world and express that sense. By the end of the course you should be able to:

1. Appraise cognitive theories

2. Consider the relationship between speaking and listening

3. Grasp the concept of a mental model and explore its value in various areas

4. Be able to discuss the nature of informal reasoning and the processes of discovery in social agents

5. Appreciate and debate the factors giving rise to individual and cultural differences in cognition

6. Assess evidence for the role of psychopathology in creativity

7. Identify and critique the effects of bilingualism on a person’s sense of self

8. Discuss the cognitive and neural basis of recovery patterns in bilingual aphasics


Summary of Course
:
The coordination between speaker and hearer in word and gesture is used to illustrate the nature and dynamics of mental representation and mental control in social agents. Key to the coordination of action is informal argument as it provides a bridge between the world of individual thinking and the thinking of groups. We explore it in different contexts: writing an essay, forming an opinion, reaching a verdict, in scientific groups and in understanding consumer advertisements. In the second part of the course we examine the nature of individual and cultural differences in cognition. We examine the effects of social practices on thinking, the relationship between psychopathology and creativity, and the cognitive and affective aspects of bilingualism.

PSYC3205A SPEECH ½ CU

Convenor: Prof Peter Howell

Email: p.howell@ucl.ac.uk

Aims:

To understand the processes of speech production and perception as they operate normally and pathologically.

Objectives:

Students are taught the way the lungs, larynx and vocal tract operate to produce speech. The physical representation of speech and the way that this is represented in spectrograms is given. These are used as a basis for investigating models of speech production. The ways that speech production is affected in pathological cases (stuttering, Down syndrome, other genetic disorders, etc) is given. It is shown how speech synthesizers mimic the form of speech seen on spectrograms. The use of synthesis techniques in studying speech perception in humans and animals are given as well as theories that attempt to explain speech perception. It is shown how hearing impairment affects the perception of speech.

Summary:

Terminology from Phonetics. Pulmonary and laryngeal systems. Acoustic characteristics of phonation signal. Frequency response of vocal tract. Spectrographic representation of speech. Application to speech production: Levelt’s model of speech control and critique. The EXPLAN model of speech control Production: Speech timing –cerebellum, Wing-Kristofferson, STI, Down syndrome, Parkinson’s speech. Coarticulation-phenomena and theories. Speaker differences. Dialogue interaction Ethics of experimental work on production. DSM-IV and classification of speech disorders Effects of hearing problems on speech control (otitis media and cochlear implants). Agrammatic aphasia speech.Stuttering its diagnosis and treatment. Speech perception; phenomena and theories. Categorical perception. Perception of accented speech. Auditory scene analysis and applications to speech perception. Motor theory of speech perception and mirror neurons.

____________________________________________________________________________________

PSYC3207A: HUMAN LEARNING AND MEMORY

Convenor: Prof David Shanks

Email: d.shanks@ucl.ac.uk

Aims:

To provide an extensive overview of current understanding of learning and memory from behavioural, cognitive, and neural perspectives, with a particular emphasis on theoretical ideas about the ways in which distinct memory processes can be isolated and identified.

Objectives:

Students are introduced to the idea of a processing stream from initial encoding and storage in short-term memory to subsequent consolidation in long-term memory and retrieval. The elements of this stream are not independent but are linked via interactions among component processes occurring at different points in the stream (transfer-appropriate processing). A key objective of the course is to equip students with the ability to evaluate evidence for the existence of distinct memory processes in this stream. Detailed understanding of aspects of the neural basis and neuropsychology of memory are relevant to this objective, hence the characteristics of amnesia are discussed in depth. Students also learn about the multiple ways in which influences of memory can manifest themselves in behaviour. Applied topics such as aging and eyewitness memory are included in the course.

Summary of Course:

Short-term memory and encoding processes. Consolidation. Implicit learning. Reliability of long-term memory. Memory and the self. Forgetting and retrieval. Aging and dementia. Transfer-appropriate processing. Memory systems and the neuroscience of memory.

PSYC3301A MULTIVARIATE STATISTICAL METHODS IN PSYCHOLOGY ½ CU

Convenor: Prof Chris McManus

Email: i.mcmanus@ucl.ac.uk

Aims: To understand a range of modern techniques used in the statistical analysis of multivariate data in psychology.

Objectives:

By the end of the course you should:

· Understand the principles of basic matrix algebra, including the concepts of an eigenvalue and a determinant, be able to manipulate simple matrix equations, recognise the applications of matrix algebra to multivariate statistics, and be able to carry out matrix calculations using Matlab.

· Understand the basics of multiple regression, including its matrix formulation, the problems of multicollinearity, suppressor variables and missing values, the use of dummy variables, polynomial terms, interaction terms, the relationship to ANOVA, and the differences between forward and backwards stepwise models, and hierarchical models.

· Be able to use Matlab to carry out multiple regression analyses, including the use of macros, and to be able to carry out a Monte Carlo analysis using Matlab to generate random variables of known distributions.

· Understand the basics of exploratory factor analysis, including its matrix representation, the use of principle component analysis for data reduction, the advantages and disadvantages of the eigenvalue>l and scree-slope criteria for the numbers of factors, and the nature of rotation, including Varimax and oblique rotations.

· Understand the difference between confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis and the advantages of each, the application of path analysis to understanding simple problems of test-retest correlations, etc., and the relationship of path analysis to matrix representations.

· Understand how factor scores can be used for reducing a complex set of dependent variables to orthogonal measures which can be used as dependent variables in regression or ANOVA, and how multiple regression can be generalised to multiple dependent variables as canonical correlation and similarly ANOVA can be generalised as MANOVA.

· Understand the basic form of structural equation modelling in the specific form of the LISREL model, and be able to describe the purposes of the various matrices in the formulation.

· Be able to use SPSS for Windows to carry out multiple regression, factor analysis, canonical correlation and MANOVA. Be able to interpret the various forms of output and to recognise the common options available for the various programs.

· Be able to use LISREL for Windows to carry out a simple confirmatory factor analysis, and recognise the various parts of the output from the program.

Summary of Course:

Most psychological datasets are inherently multivariate, and proper analysis requires that the subtleties of the interrelationships between multiple measures are taken into account. The advent of cheap computing power and sophisticated computer packages in the past couple of decades has transformed psychological statistics, and this course introduces a range of techniques which once were only for specialists and now are increasingly expected of all psychologists. The first half of the course concentrates on multiple regression, and the problems that can arise in what is effectively a paradigmatic case for all multivariate analysis, and the second half extends the analysis into properly multivariate techniques such as factor analysis, MANOVA, canonical correlation and path analysis. The examples classes are an integral part of the course, not only providing practical experience, but also supporting the lecture material.

Note: In previous years this course has used Minitab for carrying out matrix algebra. From 2008-9 we will be using the program Matlab, which is more powerful and is easier for carrying out matrix manipulations (and is also used extensively elsewhere in psychology for running experiments).

PSYC3303A TOPICS IN NEUROBIOLOGY ½ CU

Convenor: Dr Kate Jeffery

Email: k.jeffery@ucl.ac.uk

Aims:

To explore some of the biological bases of behaviour.

Objectives:

Students should be able to describe aspects of selected behaviours using multiple levels of description, ranging from molecules to behaviour.

Summary of course content:

The course is oriented around learning and memory, mainly using spatial and episodic memory as a model system with which to explore issues such as how neurons represent information, and how this representation is modified by experience. The course is divided into modules of 3-4 lectures each, each module dealing with a different aspect of learning and memory. We will use multiple levels of description ranging from the genes contained within the neurons, through the proteins they make, the dynamical functions carried out by neurons (e.g., synaptic transmission, modification of connections etc.), the interactions of groups of neurons in circuits to form cognitive representations, and all the way up to the animal's macroscopic behaviour and how this interacts with the environment. By the end of the course students should have an understanding of how (relatively!) simple low-level processes create and interact with high level processes to produce the complex behaviours (such as navigation) exhibited by animals and humans.

___________________________________________________________________________________

PSYC9001A: ONE-TERM PSYCHOLOGY RESEARCH PROJECT ½ CU

Assessment: Project Report (2500-3500 words)

Students are required to produce an empirical, experimental piece of work on a psychological topic. Students will be responsible for conducting research under the supervision of a member of faculty. Students will meet with their supervisor to discuss the project at least once per week. This research project should culminate in a written report akin to a manuscript prepared for submission to a psychological journal. Please note that students can only take this course if they are able to find a member of faculty to supervise them.

_________________________________________________________________________________

PSYC9002A: PSYCHOLOGY READINGS ½ CU

Assessment: Review Paper (approx 5000 words)

The Psychology Readings is designed to give students an opportunity to earn credit for reading articles and books in a specified area of psychology. The readings course will be supervised by a member of the psychology faculty who will meet with the student a minimum of once per week to discuss progress. The readings can be used to explore an area of psychology not offered in other courses by the department. Or, it can be used to allow the student to learn more about a previously taught topic in greater depth. The readings must culminate in the production of a written review paper. Please note that students can only take this course if they are able to find a member of faculty to supervise them.
