This is my first completed course on Coursera. Overall, a pretty good course. Made me know a little bit more about whats going on in my head. Prof. Paul Bloom explain it in such an engaging way. Also, thank you for Yale University and the animators for all their hardwork on making this course free to access.

An excellent course that will give you a deeper understanding of the basic aspects of psychology. Perfect if you want to expand your knowledge of the subject or if you, like me, wanted some more knowledge about it before going off to university! Would recommend this to anyone who is interested in psychology.

Agradecer la experiencia y oportunidad de haber llevado el curso de "Introducción a la psicología", me ayudado a nivel personal a comprender y aprender a manejar situaciones emocionales, y también me da herramientas y recursos que me ayudarán en mi trabajo. Los vídeos y lecturas han sido claras y precisas.

This was my first online course after my retirement. I enjoyed the course very much. It provided a concise survey of psychology with all the basic elements necessary for understanding the processes we all undergo all the time from our birth to the very end of life. I wholeheartedly recommend to everybody.

Before taking it I thought I knew everything about psychology (not everything but had a good notion of it), but then I found out I didn't - it was all common sense and not science. This course breaks so many misconceptions we have, it is just great! I loved taking it. Thank you to Professor Bloom and Yale!

Prof Bloom is absolutely amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed taking this class. His enthusiasm and knowledge towards this class made it easy to participate and stay engaged in the materials. Thank you ! I hope to see more of your classes & lectures on this site !

I really recommend this course. I was so very interested in Psychology since many years ago, how out brain works, why we think what we think, the personality, some emotions, you can find these topics in here. The professor Paul is great, he has a lot of experience, and give very good stories and examples.

Very well structured, professor Bloom's delivery is perfect, he makes the course easy to understand, engaging and interesting, and the animations make the whole experience more dynamic. The content and lectures have a lot of information that can be of much help afterwards. I'm very pleased by this course.

An excellent course to get introduced to the basic concepts of Psychology, to have an overview of how we've evolved on understanding feelings and thoughts during the past decades, and how recently we've acknowledged the way theyr are integrated into our self, and with our physical body and external world.

Great course, it gave me a decent amount of exposure to the introductory topics of Psychology, and very well suited for anyone starting without any previous background. The Reading material covered lots of interesting things, which took longer than the prescribed time, but it's worth spending the time :)

Hello to the learner, I feel extremely excited to participate in the Introduction to Psychology course addressing me to understand in deep how to human actions and behavior, and after I studied I feel so comfortable to be open-minded. Best suggestions for getting to this course. Thank lots for professor.

It is an incredible course, the information is very clear and the teacher makes it enjoyable, personally I can say that it gave me back the love of learning.

Es un curso increíble, la información es muy clara y el profesor la hace amena, de manera personal puedo decir que me devolvió el amor por aprender.

I really enjoy the course! Professor Bloom used some intriguing examples and perspectives to help me see psychology in a different way. I also enjoy some of his personal input. I am thinking of going back to school. I think this course provided a very good idea of some fundamental concepts in psychology.

This was one of the most interesting, engaging and fascinating courses I ever watched (and I watched many).

I feel grateful for having had the possibility to listen to this instructor, he really knows how to transport his knowledge.

Anyone should visit this course. Highly educational and interesting.

Prof. Bloom is hands down one of the best lecturers I've had the pleasure of learning from. His delivery was great, his pacing and language use was easy to follow along with.

The course has a wide range of subjects, so you can really get a feel for which area of Psychology is the most interesting to you.

I really enjoyed the accessibility of this course, having not studied psychology before. I found topics were explained clearly, with interesting case studies, and the quizzes and readings were just the right amount of support v challenge. I enjoyed the videos that had a clip from an experiment the most.

This course was fantastic and I enjoyed it very much. Professor Bloom did an excellent job of being both engaging and clear with his lectures and I found myself fascinated with the material. Thanks to this course, I am strongly considering further studies in psychology. I strongly recommend this course!

This course is perfectly constructed and on point. The concept of the video give me a bit of nostalgia of being a student again. The instructor also giving many simple examples that are very useful to grasp some quite heary concept. A bit of humour also a nice addition on this course which i enjoyed.

I love this course so much. I learned a lot about Psychology and this truly reminded me of the time when I wanted to pursue a career in Psychology and why I wanted that. Although I didn't follow my initial dream, this course has taught me such priceless knowledge that I can't wait to share it to others

Thorough presentation and suggested readings that helped to clarify and cement the information given. I enjoyed and appreciated the format as I was able to rewind when necessary (frequently) and listen while in the car. Thank you very much Professor Bloom. Hope to see you at Yale in the fall of ‘21!

The professor's genuine passion for the subject was pleasantly contagious. The course was quite comprehensive overall, and anyone who takes this course will be able to appreciate the subtle nuances when it comes to the behaviors and inclinations of our fellow human beings, and ourselves in the process.

A perfect course to understand the basics of Human Psychology. The Instructor has made every effort to keep it simple and within the reach of greenhorns like me who want to learn the rudimentaries of subject. Thanks to Team Coursera for this amazing compilation of courses. Enriching to the core. Thanks

An amazing course with a very animated and informative professor. This course was an absolute eye-opener into so many aspects of psychology; things that we ask ourselves every day and ponder on. Introduction to Psychology by Yale is one of the most interesting things I have done in the academic field.

What an amazing experience! Everything, from the lectures, to the video animations, to the readings, was so interesting and engaging. Thank you so much to Yale University, to Professor Paul Bloom and to Coursera, for making this course available. I loved every second of it!

"Obrigado" from Portugal :)

Super course. The course was engaging, educational, well presented and logically laid out. Paul delivered the material well and kept my interest throughout. I learned a lot from this simple introduction and will definitely look into studying aspects of Psychology in more detail. I highly recommend
