My Courses & Syllabi
The Psychology of Climate Change
The Psychology of Climate Change was originally designed as senior seminar (or capstone) at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. In this course, students explore the psychological barriers and motivators that lead individuals to engage in pro-environmental behavior. Together we identify how climate change affects our mental health and how people respond to a changing environment.
Design and Analysis of Psychological Experiments
In this course, students are introduced to statistical analyses for psychological research. These test are taught using the programming language R. The statistical tests we cover include linear regression, polynomial regression, linear mixed-effects models, logistic regression, mediation, signal detection theory, and Bayesian approaches to data analysis.
