This is a capstone seminar course for senior undergraduate psychology majors. This course is focused on the understanding the theories, methods, research findings, and clinical applications from the field of psycho-oncology. Students will read empirical research articles (including secondary sources) on the psychological, social, cognitive, emotional, financial, and existential aspects of a cancer diagnosis and its treatment. In this course, students will edit existing Wikipedia articles focused on topics related to psycho-oncology. We will use the article finder and the WikiProjects pages of Psychology and Medicine (Hematology-Oncology task force) to identify appropriate articles to edit.
