Psychology 101 Lecture Notes
The brain and nervous system play crucial roles in behavior. Topics include
neurons, neurotransmitters, brain structures (cerebral cortex, limbic system), and
how biological factors influence behavior and mental health.
Learning theories such as behaviorism explore how behaviors are acquired and
modified through conditioning (classical and operant conditioning),
reinforcement, punishment, and observational learning.
