PSYC 5312
Neurodevelopmental Conditions
Course Description
It is estimated that 15% of individuals in the U.S. are affected by a neurodevelopmental disability, including Down syndrome, autism, developmental language disorder, dyslexia, intellectual disability, and impairments in vision and hearing. This interdisciplinary, discussion-based seminar will address the etiology and course of some of these disabilities, drawing on theoretical models, experimental findings, and the lived experience.
