Our ability to experience emotions is so much a part of our everyday life that it virtually defines us: what makes us laugh, what makes us upset, who and what we like--our emotional reactions seem to be an inextricable part of ourselves that could never be taken away'or could it? This course will explore how common neurological disorders, such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, or Alzheimer's disease, can alter our emotional experience and processing. Prerequisites: "C" or better in (PSY 1010 OR PSY 1011 OR AP Psychology score of 3 or higher OR IB Psychology score of 5 or higher).
