PSY 456 - Attitudes and Social Behavior

Exam grades - The first column is your ID#, then your score on the essay, then your scores on the 3 short answer (not necessarily in the order you answered them), then any bonus points you got, then the number of multiple choice you got right, and finally, your total score on the final (multiple choice each counted 1.5 points).

Final grades for course - The first column is your ID#, then your term paper score (max = 80), then your exam score (max = 100) and then your letter grade for the course.

Announcements

1/26 - Term Paper proposals are due WEDNESDAY, February 7, 2001

2/1 - Here's a link that was useful to students in another course for writing a term paper in psychology - click here. Please keep in mind the website was designed for a developmental psychology course; however, a lot of the information is still very relevant.

NEW! 2/15 - Here are the books that Professor Rothbart recommended in his guest lecture:

McPherson, J. (1988). Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era. New York: Oxford University Press.

Branch, T. (1988). Parting the Waters: America in the King Years, 1954-63. New York: Simon and Schuster.
[This book contains a superb chapter on the Montgomery Bus Boycott (including the story of Rosa Parks), emphasizing the role of Martin Luther King, Jr. as a new, 27 year old minister in the Dexter Baptist Church, which became the spiritual center of the boycott].
