- Self Regulation

Catalog description

Self-regulation skills allow individuals to resist temptation and make good choices for the long term (self-control). Alternatively, many social problems may reflect at least a partial failure of self-regulatory ability. In this class we will consider how our self-regulatory skills are shaped and how they may be changed based on a critical examination of the current research.  We will consider ways that these self-regulatory behaviors may be related to our own lives as well.  This course fulfills the Oral Communication (R) GE requirement.
