DIVISION OF SOCIAL STUDIES

REVISED DESCRIPTION FOR ECONOMICS 110

How do economists apply their theories to real-world policy problems? This course introduces students to economic modeling and methods by investigating some of today's most difficult public issues. Topics covered will depend somewhat on student interests; recent ones were energy markets and regulation, the impact of current tax policies, improving the quality and quantity of education, various approaches to environmental regulation, welfare reform, Social Security and demographic changes, and health care market failures. After a general review of each topic we will learn the relevant economic theory; students who are interested in each topic will then have the opportunity to do in-depth research and present their analysis and conclusions. We will draw information from a variety of sources including scholarly publications and "think tanks," popular media coverage, U.S. Government publications and statistics, and materials from advocacy groups on different sides of the issue. (Note the word "domestic" in the course title. There is a companion course, Economics 115, "Economic Dimensions of World Issues," concerned primarily with issues that cross international borders. So we will confine ourselves whenever possible to domestic considerations. Although we focus on U.S. issues and institutions, these analytical methods can be applied to domestic policies in many different countries.)

Course	PSY 354 Eating Disorders: Clinical and Cultural Considerations
Professor	Richard Gordon
CRN	15050
Schedule	Tu 10:30 - 12:50 pm OLIN 301
Distribution	OLD: C / E	NEW: Social Science

Little known even as recently as 1970, eating and weight disorders such as anorexia, bulimia nervosa have become a subject of intense interest in recent years. This is in part due to an apparent increase in their prevalence in the last half of the 20th century as well as the great challenges that they present to medical and psychiatric caregivers. Eating disorders are also unique among psychiatric conditions in the extent to which they are influenced by cultural factors. This course will examine eating disorders from both a clinical and cultural standpoint. The first half of the course will review the biological, psychological and social/familial factors that impinge on eating disorders, through an examination of both clinical and research literature. The second half will consist of an intensive study of relevant cultural issues, including the question of cultural specificity and cross-cultural epidemiology, the idealization of thinness in food-rich and overweight culture, the trends towards overweight and obesity, conflicting pressures on women, the social psychology of dieting and exercise, and the covert glamorization of eating disorders. In addition to clinical accounts, this course will require an immersion in the rich and burgeoning research literature on this subject. This course fulfills a research conference requirement for moderated psychology students, but is open to others with sufficient preparation.
