| 10611994 | COGNITION, BODY, AND CULTURE [M-PSI/01] [ITA] | 2nd | 1st | 6 |
Educational objectives General aims:
The main objective of the course is to deepen the knowledge: a. of the relationship between cognitive processes and the bodily processes; b. of how the cognitive processes vary depending on the culture and language. Aim of the laboratory is to develop in students the capability to comprehend, evaluate and plan experiments on the topics addressed during the lectures.
Specific aims:
At the end of the course, the student will be able to: - know the studies showing that the body influences and modulates cognitive processes as perception, attention, categorization and language (Dublin 1, knowledge and understanding); - know the recent literature on the influence of cultures and languages on cognitive processes (Dublin 1, knowledge and understanding); - critically evaluate the experimental studies in this field (Dublin 3, making judgments); - apply the ac-quired knowledge to new contexts and situations (Dublin 2, applying knowledge); - plan and conduct an experiment in this field and interpret its results in an autonomous way (Dublin 5, learning skills);- communicate to the others the re-sults of the experimental study conducted (Dublin 4, communication skills).
Knowledge and understanding
Students will be illustrated the recent literature on the relationship between the body and cognitive processes (embod-ied and grounded cognition) and the literature showing how cognitive processes are modulated by cultures and lan-guages. Students should demonstrate to comprehend and know these new research areas, conceiving new and original ideas, for example proposing novel experiments.
Applying knowledge and understanding
The students will have to perform exercises in the class, to prepare themselves to the written exam. They will have to apply the acquired knowledge to new fields (e.g. they will be required to apply their knowledge on motor resonance to the planning of a clinical intervention), and to plan in small groups experiments on the topics presented during the lec-ture. This will allow evaluating how much the students have understood the topics and are able to extend and apply the acquired knowledge to new situations.
Making judgements
During the lecture the teacher will stimulate the debate, inviting students to detect the limitations of the experimental studies and to propose eventual modifications.
Communication skills
The students will be invited to actively participate to the lectures, asking questions and talking. At the end of the course they will be required to report to the others the experiment they conducted, paying attention to communicate it in a clear and exhaustive way.
Learning skills
The students will be invited to learn in an autonomous way and to apply the acquired knowledge to new situations (both during the lectures and the exam).
Prerequisites
Prerequisite for the course is the ability to understand and analyze texts. A good level of critical ability and creativity, the ability to read articles in English as well as the will-ingness to intervene actively during lessons will be useful for the course.
Essential for students is the willingness to work in groups, as well as a good level of motivation, care and interest both in the theoretical aspects addressed during the course and for experimental studies.

General aims
The main aim of the course is to provide a theoretical and operational framework to understand and assess the topics covered (eyewitness testimony). This will be done through lectures, various types of lab activities (research, hands-on training) as well as students’ presentations. The student will acquire crucial knowledge useful also for professional and applied contexts.
Specific aims
knowledge and understanding
In-depth knowledge of the psychological variables involved in producing and obtaining a testimony, as well as of the good and bad practices used in the acquisition of a testimony.
applying knowledge and understanding
Students will receive information about the vast scientific production on eyewitness testimony. Evlautation skills will be forstered about the methodology adopted for research as well as the appropriateness of cur-rent investigative techni-ques. Tools will also be provided that will make it possible for the students to compare clinical and investigative inter-ventions.
making judgements
Lectures, but more specifically lab activities and empirical studies will develops students’ ability to critically evaluate the scientific production in eyewitness psychology, the procedures adopted to acquire a testimony, and the reasoning processes that lead to the drafting of a verdict and a sentence.
communication skills
Lab activities, the presentation to the class of scientific articles and the group discussions on specific topics will make it possible for the students to develop and enhance communication skills related to the specific topic of the course and in general.
learning skills
Lectures, as well as the research techniques and data analysis examined and applied during lab activi-ties and work-shops, along with the independent reading of main research articles, favour autonomy in studying.
