The idea
Psychology is the scientific study of behavior and mental processes.
In practice
A researcher records how many hours students sleep, then measures how much they recall the next morning.
Where people slip
Psychology is not the art of reading people. Every claim in this course had to be measured before it counted.
Your place on the trail
Every lesson rests on earlier ones and opens later ones. Tap any to jump.
Builds on
- Nothing. This is a starting point.
