PSY 1323 - RISK, RESILIENCE, AND EARLY STRESS

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Long Description Sadly, millions of children in the United States and throughout the world are exposed to chronic and uncontrollable adversities (e.g., extreme poverty; maltreatment). These adverse childhood experiences are related to compromised physical and mental functioning throughout development. However, individuals and communities exposed to these types of intense challenges often exhibit an amazing level of resiliency. Across the course, we will anchor ourselves in bio-psycho-social models of development, review these different sets of findings, and think about developmental interactions between the individual, family, community, and culture.
