Seniors have Priority on April 5th, Juniors on April 12th and Sophomores on April 17th. This course explores the effects of alcohol consumption on psychological processes. It focuses on both the immediate effects of alcohol consumption and the impact of chronic overconsumption of alcohol on the human mind. We examine levels of use ranging from abstinence and social drinking to severe alcohol use disorder, and further explore how psychologists have determined boundaries that classify disordered drinking. While working primarily from a clinical psychological perspective, we examine how alcohol has been viewed across a variety of fields, ranging from cultural anthropology to cognitive psychology to neuroscience, examining cultural differences in social drinking practices, alcohol's impact on thought and cognition, as well as pharmacological effects of alcohol on the body and brain. This course is especially pertinent to students interested in clinical psychology, as well as health psychology. In addition to its relevance to these areas, however, it is also likely to be of interest to students with interests in other areas of psychology, including social psychology and cognitive psychology.
