PSY 315 - Mind in Context

The central theme of the course stems from the realization that the traditional view of ability as an internal stable property of the individual does not always explain everyday behavior and performance. But why? What are some of the factors that affect behavior and performance? Through reading and discussion we will learn about the ways context can influence how we think and perform, as well as the complexities of the relationship between mind and the context in which the mind functions and develops.
