2025W Biological Bases of Behaviour (PSY-7101-01)

Students develop an appreciation of foundational theory and contemporary research in the neurobiological bases of behaviour, evaluated within the contexts of cultural and individual diversities, and in relation to competent clinical practice. Students assess major theories and models of the neurobiological bases of behaviour in light of current research. Students consider what is known about genetic influences on the development of clinical disorders and attention is paid to the methodologies for studying genetic transmission, as well as the complex interactions between genetic factors and the environment in the development of clinical problems. We explore what is known, and what is yet unknown, about the applicability of key concepts and findings across cultural and individual diversities. Students reflect upon the implications of theory and research in biological bases of behaviour for their own development as clinicians, and for the experiences of the clients they will serve. 07-01-2025-01-04-2025 Lecture Tuesday 01:30PM - 04:20PM, Cass Science Hall, Room 101

Emphasis is placed on formulating problems experienced by children and adolescents, and looking at them in relation to a developmental psychopathology framework (e.g., individual, parent, parenting/family, and social risk and protective factors). Moreover, the importance of considering individual and cultural diversities when assessing children and adolescents is examined. Ethical issues that may arise when working with children and adolescents in an assessment context are explored. 07-01-2025-01-04-2025 Lecture Tuesday 09:30AM - 12:20PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 310
