This lecture will introduce how a consideration of evolutionary theory can inform psychology. http://www.facelab.org/debruine/Teaching/EvPsych/podcasts/2012/PS4529_EvPsych_01_Intro.mov Thu, 2 Feb 2012 14:00:00 GMT 00:51:31 Lisa DeBruine Evolutionary Theory This lecture will explain the basic evolutionary theories that are used to inform psychology. http://www.facelab.org/debruine/Teaching/EvPsych/podcasts/2012/PS4529_EvPsych_02_Theory.mov Mon, 13 Feb 2012 12:00:00 GMT 00:51:42 Lisa DeBruine Health Evolution can help us to understand many diseases. For example, some symptoms of disease, such as fever and anemia, are actually evolved defenses against pathogens. Other diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, are a result of a mismatch between our evolved behaviours (eat as much sugar as you can find) and novel environments (sugar is everywhere). This lecture will examine how evolutionary thinking can help us to understand health. http://www.facelab.org/debruine/Teaching/EvPsych/podcasts/2012/PS4529_EvPsych_03_Health.mov Thu, 23 Feb 2012 17:00:00 GMT 00:51:11 Lisa DeBruine Health This lecture will examine how evolutionary thinking can help us to understand psychopathologies, such as anxiety disorders, phobias and depression. http://www.facelab.org/debruine/Teaching/EvPsych/podcasts/2012/PS4529_EvPsych_04_Psychopathology.mov Thu, 23 Feb 2012 17:00:00 GMT 00:41:20 Lisa DeBruine Cognition and Perception This lecture will examine the evidence that humans have an evolved cognitive module designed to reason about frequencies.
