The course also provides a critical examination of the research methods used in social psychology, helping students evaluate the strengths and limitations of different approaches.

What factors shape the way we develop, think, and act? What defines our relationships with ourselves and with others? Psychology uses scientific approaches to investigate & understand the human condition. At Sewanee, we aspire to translate that work to a more equitable world. Our students and faculty pursue a more complex and nuanced understanding of thought and behavior, both in its own right and with an earnest commitment to our departmental theme of Psychology for the Public Good.
