PSY4011 Social Identity in a Diverse World

This seminar course explores the impact of diversity on who you are as a person, with attention paid to neurodiversity. Identity, one’s definition of the self, is a cornerstone of wellness and an area of psychosocial growth in adolescence and adulthood. In this course, students will use social identity development models and intersectional concepts to explore their own identities and those of writers who define themselves as neurodivergent, transgender, persons of color, and combinations of these and other social categories. Students will be asked to read an interdisciplinary selection of books and articles, lead a seminar session, write an autobiographical paper, and write a research article following disciplinary conventions in psychology.
