Psychology

welcome!

hi everyone

i'm sam, your friendly psychology tutor. i'm here to advise you on course selection, papers, data analysis, psych labs, thesis opportunities, and post-graduate plans.

for those of you interested in clinical psychology, we're going to have an event this spring with craig rodgers, a clinician at the bureau of study counsel. i'll send out more info on that soon.

in the meantime, let me know what i can do to help.

the best way to reach me is emai (moulton@wjh) but feel free to stop by my room (c24).

later,
sam

happiness

For anyone who is not taking Positive Psychology, but who is nonetheless interested in either being happy or research into happiness, I've uploaded some articles that may interest you:

Although it may come as a shock to some, money does not make people happier. Simple acts of gratitude or altruism do, however.

Also, for those interested in happiness or the intersection between psychology and economics, I encourage you to check out the upcoming lectures at Harvard featuring Nobel Laureate Daniel Kahneman. More info can be found here:
