PSY 310 - Psychology of Motivation and Emotion

Credit(s): 3

Our motivation for learning, school, work, recreation, relationships, and our overall well-being is grounded in our emotional processes. In this course, you will use diverse theoretical perspectives (e.g., humanistic, behavioral, social, cognitive, biological, environmental) to examine emotions and motivation. Research in which these theories are applied to how emotions affect our self-control, self-regulation, cognition, and drive to achieve our academic, professional, and personal goals will be explored.
