The abnormal psychology course aims to sensitize the students about the existence of abnormal behaviour in order to develop greater

social responsibility. The course coupled with the social psychology course of the previous semester and other courses from sociology,

specifically with regard to social problems, would create a holistic understanding of the individual and their society. Further, the course

would enable the student to develop a cultural understanding of abnormal behaviour within the Indian context and specifically to

Bangalore. In Bangalore, there is a noticeable increase in the mental health issues faced by the population and the need for mental health

practitioners who understand the difference between abnormal behaviour and distressing behaviour is a major requirement and the course

would be the first step towards that direction. This course has been conceptualized in order to help the students develop an understanding

of the historical development of the study of abnormal behaviour. The specific course aim is to create an understanding of the criteria

and perspectives in abnormal behaviour, common classification systems, and range of disorders including anxiety disorders, mood

disorders, schizophrenia, somatic symptom disorders generally observed at childhood and adolescence, and personality disorders. This

course will help the learner understand

Media psychology is the application of psychological theory and research to the analysis of media and technology use, development and impact. The idea is that it will spark an interest where the student might want to continue future exploration in both the fields, Media and Psychology. The main purpose of this course is to provide students with an overview of the ways in which the media—primarily electronic media-affect the viewer psychologically. A second purpose is to examine how the science of psychology is presented in the media. An examination will be made of several psychological theories that help to explain media effects. A particular emphasis will be placed upon the following media psychology-related topics: Aggression, advertising, news, portrayals of minorities, emotion, and health behaviours.

Course objectives: This course will help the learner

• To give context and awareness of the theoretical tools at disposal as the students begin their journey through media psychology

• To show the broader media landscape, across important topics including multicultural understanding, use, influence and impact of media

• Finally to instil in the importance of understanding human behaviour and experience as the basis for working with media applications

• To provide an interdisciplinary study of concepts in the field of media, communication and psychology.
