Psychology of Gender

Undergraduate

This course examines recent scientific data on the psychological similarities and differences among genders, how differences are thought to arise, and implications of those differences. The separate dimensions of gender including sex assigned at birth, gender identity, and gender/role expression will be examined from different theoretical perspectives that challenge viewing gender as a binary construct.
