Educational objectives

The teaching aims to lay the foundations for understanding the fundamental mental and behavioral processes of the human being, such as perception, attention, memory, learning, language and thought, providing a general understanding of mental mechanisms. In particular, the following topics will be covered: Perception, How we interpret information from the outside world; Attention, how we select the information on which we focus our attention; Memory: How we encode, store and retrieve information; Learning: How we acquire new knowledge and skills; Language: How we use language to communicate and think; Thinking: How we process information and make decisions; Emotions: How emotions influence our behavior and mental experiences; Consciousness: How we are aware of ourselves and the outside world; Intelligence: How we solve problems and adapt our behavior.
