3.0 TEXTBOOK

Assigned readings, listed below, are to be completed as specified, before each class meeting, according to the schedule that follows. There is no textbook for this seminar.

Students are required to submit to the instructor one question, comment, or reaction to each assigned reading, by noon on the Friday prior to the class for which the reading is assigned, via email to the instructor. These questions, comments, or reactions to each assigned reading will be posted in a class blog on our OWL site and students are expected to review these contributions prior to the class meeting during which the readings they relate to will be discussed. Each question, comment, or reaction will be graded and the overall average grade will be worth 20% of your final grade. “Average” questions, comments, and reactions will receive a grade of 75% and stronger comments, questions, and reactions that indicate both that students have completed the readings and that they have generated thoughts or insights about the readings will receive correspondingly higher grades.

4.0 COURSE OBJECTIVES

Psychologists are committed to the scientific study of sexual behaviour for both theoretical and practical reasons. From a theoretical perspective, generalizable psychological theory may be developed and tested in research concerning sexual behaviour. From a practical perspective, psychological knowledge may be applied to ameliorate problematic aspects of sexual behaviour and accentuate positive aspects of such behaviour. In accord with these theoretical and practical concerns, psychologists have worked to develop conceptual models of factors that influence human sexual behaviour and to apply psychological knowledge to reduce sex-related problems and increase sex-related positive outcomes.

This seminar on the psychology of human sexual behaviour will involve lectures, readings, class discussions, and student presentations focusing on history, ethics, methodology, theory, and selected content areas that are significant in this field of study. Each class will involve a didactic content-focused lecture, class discussion of assigned primary source readings, and small group brainstorming regarding research and practice challenges in human sexuality presented by the instructor. Acquisition of foundational knowledge in selected areas of the psychology of sexual behaviour is a primary objective of this course.

Please note that the subject matter of this seminar is human sexual behaviour. The course will involve explicit discussion and imagery of a variety of aspects of sexual behaviour as indicated in the synopsis of topics to be covered in this course.

4.1 STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES

By the end of this course, the successful student will be able to identify, discuss, and/or explain:

Critical events in the history of the scientific study of human sexuality.

Ethical and methodological challenges in the scientific study of human sexuality.

Diverse theoretical approaches to understanding human sexual behaviour.

Approaches to understanding human sexual response and ameliorating human sexual dysfunction.

Approaches to understanding and reducing sexual assault.

The history, successes, and failures in the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Major claims and bodies of research evidence concerning the impact of pornography on behaviour.

5.0 EVALUATION

Student questions, comments, or responses to each assigned reading, submitted prior to each class meeting, will be evaluated as indicated above (20% of student final marks); class participation will be continuously evaluated (20% of student final marks); student presentation of seminar papers will take place on November 19, November 26 and December 3, 2018 and will be evaluated (20% of student final marks) and student seminar papers (worth 40% of student final marks) will be evaluated and will consist of 10-12 page reviews of the literature in an area of the psychology of sexual behavior of student interest as agreed upon with the instructor are due

Note: You must pass the essay component to pass the course. That is, the average mark for your written assignments must be at least 50%.

70%     1000-level and 2000-level courses
72%     2190-2990 level courses
75%     3000-level courses
80%     4000-level courses

The Psychology Department follows Western's grading guidelines, which are as follows (see http://www.uwo.ca/univsec/pdf/academic_policies/general/grades_undergrad.pdf):

A+ 90-100      One could scarcely expect better from a student at this level
A   80-89       Superior work that is clearly above average
B   70-79       Good work, meeting all requirements, and eminently satisfactory
C   60-69       Competent work, meeting requirements
D   50-59       Fair work, minimally acceptable
F   below 50    Fail

6.0 TEST AND EXAMINATION SCHEDULE

Student presentation of seminar papers will take place on November 19, November 26 and December 3, 2018) and student seminar papers are due December 10, 2018

7.0 CLASS SCHEDULE
