Values students reported from the study of emotions

Abstract

This study was an attempt to measure benefits or values received from the study of a first course in psychology. Such a first course should offer an opportunity for gaining new skills, changed viewpoints, and better methods of personal adjustment, as one course is often all that a student takes in psychology. The present study indicated that 80% of the questioned students reported definite and known benefits. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
