This supervised review will compare and contrast different theoretical and methodological approaches to a particular topic in the study of the mind. The aim of this module is to encourage students to gain a clear picture as to what is unique about an evolutionary approach to the study of the mind, how it differs from other psychological approaches, and to gain an appreciation of the strengths and weaknesses of such an approach. Suitable topics for review will be chosen by agreement with the student's supervisor and the Course Controller.
