About the Course

What are people most afraid of? What do our dreams mean? Are we natural-born racists? What makes us happy? What are the causes and cures of mental illness? This course tries to answer these questions and many others, providing a comprehensive overview of the scientific study of thought and behavior. It explores topics such as perception, communication, learning, memory, decision-making, persuasion, emotions, and social behavior. We will look at how these aspects of the mind develop in children, how they differ across people, how they are wired-up in the brain, and how they break down due to illness and injury....

Very kind and wise and humble words combined with a warm and tender voice ! The content could include more details. I also enjoyed Professor Bloom's avatar and his changing cloths and other cartoons.

The lectures were very fun, engaging, and interactive. Taking this course gives you a deeper understanding of life and helps answer questions we have about ourselves, others, and the world we live in.

Interesting topics, but low quality video with distracting animations, issues with audio getting stuck, poorly estimated time of reading (e.g. 6 long articles estimated to take 10 mins). Overall: not recommended.

opinion and explanation that are given by proffers are strongly subjective. also course doesn`t represent real basis of psychology and is rather made like course for hobby

Not bad, a lot of interesting things. But - no system, no specific way, just few words about anything, and they not realy related with each others. But not bad.

The animations, cartoons, and sound effects are extremely unnecessary and annoying. The speaker should have talked in a louder tone.

I would rather watch his old course uploaded on youtube. That is way more engaging even when the presentation is not visible.

Stats about autism are massively outdated. Stephen Pinker is not a good person to reference as his science is junk.
