I just started a new course at edX.org about how people form opinions, make decisions, recall memories, and interpret perceptions. It's so fascinating that I had to share it here. One thing that lead me to this course is my interest in cognitive biases. Much of the course covers psychological experiments that demonstrate how irrational humans really are. I find these types of experiments interesting, but I have a hypothesis that aspies would actually have very different results for many of these types of tests.
I think many people here would be interested. It would be cool if a few people took the course simultaneously and discussed it here.
The course is offered by The University of Queensland, Australia through edX. It's completely free and self-paced. You can start it any time. Here is the link:
