Students learn about clinical and experimental approaches to human neuropsychology as a basis for understanding brain-behavior relationships in both typical and impaired functioning. Students distinguish the structure and function of the human brain, with particular emphasis on the cerebral cortex; they gain knowledge and understanding of how behavior can be used to infer brain function; and they think critically about key ideas and research findings in neuropsychology. Recommended prerequisites: PSYC 1111 and PSYC 12111 and PSYC 2041. Note: Students will only receive credit for one of PSYC 3391 and PSYC 3390.
