N.B. Gli articoli n. 6 e 7 vanno portati all’esame solo da coloro che non presentino, durante il corso, una relazione orale su due dei primi cinque articoli.

Il corso, articolato in due parti, si propone di fornire una panoramica degli ambiti di pertinenza della psicologia del pensiero e di approfondire lo studio del ragionamento, facendo riferimento alle ripercussioni di tale studio sulla concezione della razionalità umana

Conoscenza di base della psicologia generale

Lezioni frontali con modalità interattiva: gli allievi dovranno risolvere problemi inerenti alle tematiche del corso e discutere i testi proposti

Prova orale.

Saranno disponibili le diapositive delle lezioni, che costituiscono parte integrante del programma d’esame, e gli articoli scientifici.

N.B. Papers 6 e 7 are obligatory only for the students not presenting an oral report about two of the first five papers during the course.

The course, divided in two parts, aims to provide an overview of the main topics of the psychology of thought and to deepen the study of human reasoning.

Basic knowledge of general psychology

Lectures with interactive mode: student will solve problems related to the topics of the course and discuss the proposed papers.

Oral exam.

The course slides, which are an integral part of the exam program, and the scientific papers will be available.
