Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
- cognitive (dis)ability (IQ, Down syndrome, learning disabilities, etc.)
- cognitive (dys)function (schizophrenia, mood/anxiety disorders, attention deficit disorder, etc.)
- personality, aggression, drug abuse, etc.
- neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, etc.)

Grading
Grades will solely be determined by the quality of the students’ presentations, critical analyses, and class participation.
