Psych 131/140: Developmental Psychology
These notes are a fusion of material from two related developmental psychology courses at Berkeley: Psych 131 (Developmental Psychopathology) and Psych 140 (Developmental Psychology). Topics from both courses are combined here since they cover overlapping concepts– Psych 131 focuses more on disorders, whereas Psych 140 focuses on standard developmental milestones.
