PSYC 2080 - Biological Psychology

(3)

Biological Psychology explores the biological and physiological influences that drive behavior to adapt and cope with the environment as well as the biology of maladaptive behaviors such as addiction and depression. It examines comparative behavior between humans and non-human animals, the nervous system, hormones, anatomy, genetics, neurological factors, brain function, and mental processes such as sensation, memory, emotion, and consciousness that guide and regulate human behavior.
