This module will enhance your understanding of the science of emotion and motivation. In this module, we will cover historical perspectives and seminal studies, linking these to current theory and research in, for instance, emotional expression, emotion regulation, brain-body interaction, happiness and social emotions, motivation and goal pursuit, self-regulation such as self-control or behaviour change. The module will also cover research methods specific to emotion and motivation. As such, the module incorporates BPS core content in the following areas: conceptual and historical issues, social and biological psychology, individual differences, and research methods.聽聽

Structure
Teaching and learning methods
This module uses a combination of interactive lectures and discussion heavy seminars. We will involve digital learning methods such as polling apps to digitally enhance the lectures and seminars. The seminars enable students to work in teams to explore and evaluate the material that has been taught, facilitated by the teaching team. Students are expected to prepare for each teaching session as appropriate by independent self-directed learning; this will be complemented by an online discussion board.聽聽
This module is taught via ten two-hour lectures.聽
Four of these lectures will be supplemented by a one-hour seminar with the goal of expanding upon the taught content.聽
Material will be supported by recommended reading and self-scheduled digital activities such as watching screencasts or recommended videos.聽
Study hours
At least 25 hours of scheduled teaching and learning activities will be delivered in person, with the remaining hours for scheduled and self-scheduled teaching and learning activities delivered either in person or online. You will receive further details about how these hours will be delivered before the start of the module.
