Program Description
The Psychology Department offers MA and PhD programs. Students may select Behavioural Neuroscience, Lifespan Development, or Social/Personality as their focus. Both MA and PhD programs are characterized by active faculty collaboration within and across areas and by a research focus. Both programs have a part-time option. Part-time students must ensure that there is sufficient flexibility in their work schedules to allow for attendance at courses, seminars, colloquia, and examinations; to engage in data collection; and to participate in meetings with supervisors as required. Student-faculty meetings are scheduled at the mutual convenience of the student and supervisor. The PhD program offers special opportunities for students to individualize their learning experience through a choice of apprenticeships, a choice of methods courses, and a choice of electives, including independent study courses.

Fields of Specialization

Behavioural Neuroscience
Behavioural neuroscience integrates concepts and methods from psychology with biology, chemistry, physiology, and pharmacology, in the study of the neurophysiological and neurological underpinnings of behaviour. The basic tenet of the field is that behaviour ultimately reflects brain function and that understanding brain function helps us to understand behaviour. Research in behavioural neuroscience may occur on a number of levels of analysis, ranging from the single cell to the whole organism. Individual students will specialize in a particular area but must also learn to appreciate the concepts and methods related to other focal areas and other levels of analysis. Students can gain experience working with neuroanatomical, neuropharmacological, electrophysiological, neuropsychological, and behavioural methods. Brock researchers use a variety of electrophysiological and behavioural techniques to investigate, for example, the physiological basis of sleep, the consequences of sleep deprivation, the neural correlates of normal and disrupted attentional and memory processes, individual differences in attention and cognitive control, psychophysiological measures of developmental and age-related change in cognitive and emotional function, medial prefrontal cortex activation as related to individual differences in risk-taking and sensation-seeking characteristics in youth, event-related potentials of early cortical processes involved in coding familiar visual stimuli such as words or emotional faces including how they differ as a function of personality traits such as shyness or psychopathology, and the long-term sequelae of mild closed head injury. Other researchers in our group perform behavioural pharmacological studies of major neurotransmitter systems (cholinergic, glutamatergic, dopaminergic, and their role in the production of vocalization and initiation of locomotor activity in rodents, the effects of stress on brain development and sensitivity to drugs in rodents, and the role of hormones in human and animal behaviour. A strong interdisciplinary team has formed the Brock Institute for Electrophysiological Research to help advance this field within neuroscience.

Lifespan Development
From birth to death, development is shaped by changes both within the individual and in his or her environment. Our program emphasizes development through the lifespan studied from social, emotional, cognitive, and/or neuropsychological perspectives. Particular emphasis is placed on the theoretical and practical implications of measuring change over time in the contexts of normal and atypical development, Laboratories are available for the study of perceptual and cognitive development during infancy and childhood, parent-child interactions, children's peer relationships, childhood aggression, psychopathology, adolescent and emerging adulthood lifestyle choices, resilience, youth engagement, and adolescent learning disabilities. Current research involves both community and special populations from infants to older adults. Close links with faculty in Behavioural Neuroscience allow interested students to work towards an integration of neurological and experiential factors that help shape development, especially those related to emotional and cognitive self-regulation. Opportunities to engage in developmental research may be available through the Centre of Excellence for Youth Engagement. In addition, faculty are involved in the Lifespan Development Research Centre (LDRC), the Brock Research Institute for Youth Studies (BRIYS), and other multidisciplinary research initiatives. These research initiatives provide unique opportunities for research and thesis collaboration.

Social/Personality
The social/personality psychology group at Brock is involved in a broad range of research based on a situational approach to human behaviour, on relatively enduring individual difference factors, and on the synergy between the person and the social situation. Research interests of the social/personality faculty at Brock range from basic research issues to applied psychology. In particular, several members of the social/personality group are involved in positive psychology and the study of social issues. Faculty involved in positive psychology research at Brock study phenomena such as the meanings and consequences of forgiveness, attachment, intimacy, positive health, family relationships, and subjective well-being. Faculty conducting social issues research are focused on topics such as social justice, coping with traumatic events, prejudice and racism, aggressive behaviour, alcohol use, and sexual health. Faculty are also currently pursuing research in the structure of personality, sexual orientation, intergroup relations, psychopathy and forensic psychology, and emotion regulation. This diversity of research topics is complemented by an array of methodologies for investigating social/personality issues, including experiments, reaction time methodologies, observational techniques, qualitative methods, archival research, and longitudinal designs.

Master of Arts

Program Objectives
The objectives are to provide intensive research training in the fields of Behavioural Neuroscience, Lifespan Developmental Psychology, and Social/Personality Psychology and to develop an appreciation of the scientific basis of psychology and the skills necessary to systematic examination of basic or applied issues in the field of interest. Many graduates will pursue further training at the doctoral level; others will be prepared to work in a wide variety of occupations in which an appreciation of the theoretical, conceptual, and methodological basis of psychology is of value.

Normally, those admitted to the MA program have the option of proceeding on to the PhD program when the MA criteria have been met and formal permission to proceed has been granted. Students apply via an internal paper application.

For full-time students the program is normally six terms (two years).

Admission Requirements
Successful completion of an Honours Bachelor's degree, or equivalent, in Psychology or Neuroscience with a minimum average of B+. An empirical Honours thesis, or evidence of similar research is required. Scores on the Graduate Record Examination, both General and Psychology sections, must be submitted.

Students applying at the MA level should indicate on their application whether they intend to pursue graduate studies through to a PhD so that their application can be considered in the context of their academic goals.

The Graduate Admissions Committee will review all applications and recommend admission for a limited number of suitable candidates.
Please note that, in any given year, admission to a particular field of study depends, in part, on the availability of supervisory and teaching resources.

Part-time study is available.

Students applying to the MA program with backgrounds other than Psychology or Neuroscience
In recognition of the interdisciplinary nature of Psychology, the Admissions Committee will consider applications from students holding degrees in allied fields. To ensure that such applicants have a background in psychology adequate for successful completion of their graduate program, the following additional requirements for admission to the Master's program have been established. Applicants must have completed an undergraduate thesis in another discipline that involved empirical research of scope and complexity comparable to that of an undergraduate Psychology thesis.

Degree Requirements
In addition to the thesis (PSYC 5A90), basic degree requirements are the completion of the courses listed below. All students are also expected to attend Departmental colloquia. Students will consult with the Graduate Program Director and their thesis supervisor when planning a program of study.

Doctoral Program

Program Objectives
The objectives of the PhD program in Psychology are to develop a high level of research expertise and the capacity for assuming a critical and scholarly approach to basic and/or applied issues in the fields of Social/Personality, Lifespan Development, and Behavioural Neuroscience. The program adopts a skills-based approach, ensuring that students have access to hands-on training in basic research, teaching, and applied areas that will prepare them well for a broad range of post-graduate situations. They will build on the experiences acquired at the MA level by developing further the skills needed to achieve independent responsibility for learning, for seeking out and integrating relevant information from a variety of sources and perspectives, for achieving depth of understanding in a specific area of expertise, and for making original contributions to knowledge. Depth of knowledge is fostered through the research seminar course within the student's area of interest in addition to his or her dissertation research. Breadth and integration are achieved through the advanced study and professional issues courses and attendance at the Departmental colloquium series. The required methods course provides the foundation for advanced statistical and methodological skills in preparation for thesis research. The acquisition of applied and job-related skills is facilitated through the completion of one of three apprenticeships from among teaching, research, and community options. All PhD students have the opportunity to serve as teaching assistants in each year of their program.

For full-time students the program is normally twelve terms (four years).

Admission Requirements
Successful completion of a Master's degree, or equivalent, in Psychology or Neuroscience. Students must have achieved an A average in the previous two years of graduate study and must provide evidence of research competence, normally demonstrated by a Master's thesis. Scores on the General Graduate Record Examination (unofficial test scores up to 10 years old may be provided) must be submitted.

Note: internal MA PSYC applicants apply via the internal application form. The OUAC web application is not required.

The Graduate Admissions Committee will review all applications and recommend admission for a limited number of suitable candidates.

Please note that in any given year admission to a particular field of study depends, in part, on the availability of supervisory and teaching resources.
Part-time study is available.
