PSYC 4606 - Cognitive Biases in Anxiety and Related Disorders


Effective Date 01/01/2021
This course examines cognitive processing biases in anxiety and related disorders. To understand, for example, why a person with social anxiety sees only the one scowling face in a room full of smiles, we consider automatic processing of emotional information. The course critiques cutting-edge research on how these processes contribute to anxiety and related problems, and if it is important to change the processes to reduce psychopathology.

Requisites PSYC 2410 and restricted to 3rd or 4th year Psychology or Cognitive Science majors.

Credits: 3
