This course is an introduction to cultural influences on human behavior and mental processes. Beginning with an examination of theoretical definitions of culture, the course covers a broad range of theories and research findings regarding cultural influences on lifespan development, abnormal behavior and mental health, self-concept, emotion, motivation, learning, intelligence, perception, memory, communication, social cognition, and social behavior. The diversity of human expression is examined in multicultural context within the United States as well as in comparison to other countries. By providing students with a non-judgmental understanding of how culture influences human behavior, and how this varies from culture to culture, this course will make them more equipped to interact in a world where there is increasing contact among different cultures. In addition, students will gain knowledge in cross-cultural research methodology. (CSU) (UC) (Degree Credit) AA GE, CSU GE, IGETCUsually HeldMon Wed 10:10am–11:35am
