PSYC 450 - Seminar in Language and Thought Next Offered: 2017-2018
Semester Offered: Second Semester Full Course Credits: 4 credits Attribute: 4SS, CD, WADV
In this class we will explore the complex interrelationships between language and thought. Can subtle differences in the language we are exposed to affect how we make important decisions or remember events? Do people who speak different languages think about and even perceive the world differently? Are some thoughts unthinkable without language or are the effects of language on thought more benign? And through what mechanisms might language influence other cognitive processes?
