PSYCH 2100
The Science of Human Stupidity

Course information provided by the 2026-2027 Catalog.

The most significant problems that humans face - climate change, sectarian violence, political polarization, the spread of misinformation, etc. - are problems that we've made for ourselves. In this lecture course, we will probe the depths of human stupidity by exploring research on the nature of human reasoning, decision-making, beliefs, and more.
