Do we all learn and remember things in the same way? Do we express personality and emotions similarly across the world? This course aims at providing students with knowledge and understanding of the main theories on learning and memory, personality and intelligence, motivation and emotion from an individual differences perspective, and from a cultural differences perspective (for example, learning and cognitive styles in Western vs Eastern cultures). At the end of the course, students should be able to exhibit knowledge on theories and methods used to study personality, intelligence, learning, memory, emotion, motivation within the frameworks of differential and cultural psychology. Furthermore, they should be able to critically think of their own personal learning style, comparing it to that of other people from different cultures.
