ED 505 - Advanced Psychology of Human Development


This course focuses on a developmental, life-span approach to human psychological growth (i.e., prenatal to death). Developmental and educational theories and stages (psychosexual, cognitive, emotional, moral, psychological) and related stage-crises are examined. Psychological experiences promoting adaptive behavior are emphasized. Students explore their preconceptions relevant to human growth and they synthesize interventions useful in counseling circumstances. This is an introductory course in the Psy.D. program.
