Special Admissions Requirement

The department requires that scores from the GRE General Test accompany an application.

Special Requirements for the Ph.D. Degree

In order to allow each student to be trained in accordance with his or her own interests and career goals, the general requirements of the department are kept to a minimum. The formal requirements are: (1) Course work selected to meet the individual’s objectives with a minimum of three basic-level courses and one course in data analysis. Two of the three required basic-level courses must be in two different areas of psychology outside the student’s main area of concentration. The basic-level course requirement must be completed by the end of the second year. Students must attain an Honors grade in at least two term courses by the end of the second year of study. (2) Nine units of teaching are required in years two through four. (3) Completion of a predissertation research project, to be initiated not later than the second term and completed not later than May 1 of the second year. Certification of this research project as well as performance in course work and other evidence of scholarly work at a level commensurate with doctoral study, as judged by the faculty, are necessary for continuation beyond the second year. (4) Submission of a dissertation prospectus, and a theme essay that demonstrates the candidate’s comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the area of concentration. Certification of the theme essay completes the qualifying examination. (5) Approval of the dissertation by an advisory committee and the passing of an oral examination on the dissertation and its general scientific implications. The theme essay and the dissertation prospectus are completed during the third year. Students are then formally admitted to Ph.D. candidacy. The dissertation area review of the literature must be approved prior to receipt by the readers of a preliminary draft of the dissertation. There are no language requirements.

The faculty considers teaching to be an essential element of the professional preparation of graduate students in Psychology. For this reason participation in the Teaching Fellow Program is a degree requirement for all doctoral students. They are expected to serve as teaching fellows for a total of nine teaching fellow units over the course of the second through fourth years in the program. Opportunities for teaching are matched as closely as possible with students’ academic interests.

Combined Ph.D. Program

A combined Ph.D. degree with African American Studies is available. Consult departments for details.

Master’s Degrees

M.Phil. The academic requirements for the M.Phil. degree are the same as for the Ph.D. degree except for the submission of a prospectus, a dissertation area review, and the completion and defense of a dissertation, which define the Ph.D.
M.S. (en route to the Ph.D.). The M.S. degree is awarded upon satisfactory completion of the second year of the program leading to the Ph.D. degree and also of the departmental predissertation research requirement.

Courses

PSYC 502au,Learning Theory.  Allan Wagner.
T 1.30–3.20
This course is concerned with the development of Learning Theory from its beginnings in Associationism, Behaviorism, and Darwinian revolution to its present “connectionistic,” neural-network expressions. It emphasizes the systematic implication of studies of animal learning for commenting on the theoretical representations of knowledge and the principles of behavior modification.

[PSYC 543a, History and Development of Psychological Theory.]

[PSYC 553a, Behavioral Decision Making I.]  

PSYC 554b, Behavioral Decision Making II.  Nathan Novemsky.
T 4.10–7.10
This seminar examines research on the psychology of decision making, focusing on judgment. Although the normative issue of how decisions should be made is relevant, the descriptive issue of how decisions are made is the main focus of the course. Topics of discussion include judgment heuristics and biases, confidence and calibration, issues of well-being including predictions and experiences, regret and counterfactuals, and other topics. The goal of the seminar is threefold: to foster a critical appreciation of existing knowledge in behavioral decision theory, to develop the students’ skills in identifying and testing interesting research ideas, and to explore research opportunities for adding to that knowledge. Students generally enroll from a variety of disciplines, including cognitive and social psychology, behavioral economics, finance, marketing, political science, medicine, and public health. Also MGMT 754b.

PSYC 556b, Developmental Psychopathology.  Julia Kim-Cohen. 
M 1.30–3.20
This course provides an overview of the theoretical and empirical literature in the field of developmental psychopathology. Psychopathology is studied as a series of models of atypical development that can elucidate underlying mechanisms of stability and change. Although emphasis is placed on the causes and correlates of child and adolescent psychopathology, continuities and discontinuities in psychopathology across the lifespan are also covered. Readings include epidemiological, experimental, neurobiological, psychosocial, and ecological perspectives. Theoretical, methodological, and clinical implications of empirical findings are discussed.

PSYC 557b, Social Psychology and Relationships.  Margaret Clark.
W 9.25–11.15
The course focuses on determinants of initial attraction and interpersonal processes that serve to promote high-quality relationships and detract from high-quality relationships, along with individual differences and how they relate to those processes. Initial sessions focus on ways of conceptualizing attraction and relationships. The remaining sessions (constituting the bulk of the course) are organized around the theories that have organized the empirical research in this field including evolutionary approaches, interdependence theory, attachment theory, self-evaluation maintenance theory, along with other approaches. Grades are based on participation in the seminar and on three written assignments linked to the material covered in each third of the class. Each assignment can take the form either of answering a set of distributed questions that require knowledge of the material covered but which also require going beyond that material to explore some implications of the work, or proposing a specific study relating to the material covered but also going beyond that material in some way.

PSYC 664a, Health and Aging.  Becca Levy.
Since 1900, the number of individuals sixty-five years and older has tripled and life expectancy has increased by about thirty years. In this seminar we examine some of the health issues related to this growing segment of the population.
