October 2011
In our first few sessions for 2012, we’re planning to look at:
-
“Memory” - how we can improve it.
-
“The Psychology of Religious Practice”
-
“Rosenhan’s Experiment” - a ground breaking exploration that changed the way that mental illnesses were identified.
Our sessions are always lively, so if you’re curious about human behaviour and enjoy a good discussion, why not join us sometime.
