PSY 225 - Evolutionary Psychology


Prerequisite(s): PSY 100 .
This course investigates how evolutionary principles shape body and mind. In the same way that physiological systems (e.g., cardiovascular, respiratory, immune) can be described as products of natural selection, psychological systems (e.g., language, memory, emotions) can be described as mental adaptations acquired by the same processes.
