Determinants Of Behaviour

About this Book

Determinants of Behaviour is an introductory psychology course designed to expose students to the major factors that influence human behaviour. The course examines the role of heredity, environment, biological processes, sensation, perception, cognition, learning, motivation, emotion, personality, socialization, stress, coping, technology, and abnormality in shaping behaviour.
The course helps students understand that human behaviour is complex and cannot be explained by one factor alone. Instead, behaviour is influenced by the interaction of biological, psychological, social, cultural, environmental, and technological factors. The course also introduces students to practical examples and psychological experiments that explain how people learn, adjust, conform, cope, and respond to different situations.
