Obiettivi Formativi
This course aims at developing knowledge and understanding in several key areas of applied Social development:
a) Advanced comprehension of statistical models and the interpretation of experimental data with reference to Social development.
b) Profound understanding of the methods and experimental techniques employed within the field of Social development.
c) Ethical and deontological awareness necessary for conducting experimental procedures in the area of Social development responsibly. Furthermore, the course aims to cultivate the ability to apply this knowledge and understanding effectively by:
a) enhancing proficiency in executing and assessing applications within experimental contexts in the area of Social development
b) advancing students’ competences in executing and evaluating applications within clinical environments in the area of Social development.
c) promoting of critical thinking, analytical prowess, and the synthesis of ideas in the area of Social development
d) using ethical principles in practical applications and research endeavours in Social development.

Prerequisiti
The course has no prerequisites but will benefit from some familiarity with rudiments in developmental psychology, social psychology and cognitive neuroscience.
Metodi didattici
The course will adopt a variety of teaching methods to provide a comprehensive and engaging learning experience.
Each lecture will combine a lecturing component and a flipped classroom component. During the flipped class component, small groups of 2 to 4 students will prepare a presentation and lead a discussion on a recent scientific paper on adolescence social development. A maximum of 2 points will be awarded to each presenter, to be summed to the mark of the exam.
There will be no differentiation of the curriculum between attending and non-attending students. All students will have the opportunity to access the course content. However, especially because of the journal club component of the course, students are strongly encouraged to attend.

Contenuti
- Introduction to social development: decision theory and the neural substrates of social cognition and social decision making.
- Structural and functional brain development during adolescence: recent advances in developmental brain sciences, combining cutting edge neuroscience methods with longitudinal approaches to social and cognitive development.
