PSY* 211 Psychology of Women

Credits: 3

This course studies a variety of psychological issues as they apply to women. Traditional psychological overviews give insufficient attention to or emphasis on topics critical to a psychological depiction of women. This course attempts to redress this imbalance. Topics include how women develop psychologically, how they form values and direct their behavior, women’s sexual behavior and anatomy, women and work, women’s reactions to stress, and women and substance abuse.
