Laboratory of Experimental Practice

Presentation

The Experimental Practice Laboratory (LPE) is a relevant area in the training of future psychology professionals. LPE classes are planned to promote different academic competencies, such as think in alternative ways (critical thinking), and answer questions raised by professional practice. In this discipline, the students will have the possibility to plan an investigation. It is intended to provide students with academic and pro-social skills in the exercise of their future profession, with direct applications. Similarly, the knowledge acquired in LPE will be valuable in the second cycle for interconnection with other disciplines, including preparing the master dissertation.
