The study of current human behaviour and experience.
No prior knowledge of psychology is required.
Communications to members are by Bcc email. On a monthly basis, the group leader sends out an email, that will link to one piece of recent research conducted by psychologists, which is of current interest.
Group members are invited to give their opinions on the research findings. Do they agree? Does it coincide with the members’ own experiences? The group members enjoy open discussion on a wide range of topics. Recent topics discussed included: Effects of video gaming and online pornography, and PTSD.
Group members are encouraged to suggest topics and to lead the discussion if they have a particular interest in that area.
