Fall 2024 - Dr. Ho is, without a doubt, my favorite professor at UCLA. While other reviews provide a great overview of the course structure, I wanted to share my perspective for any psychology majors considering taking her lab class: DO IT! As someone planning to pursue clinical psychology and counseling, I didn’t expect to enjoy the research aspects of psychology as much as I did in this class. I always found research, and especially coding, intimidating, but Dr. Ho’s teaching completely changed my perspective. She has a way of making complex topics, like coding, approachable and manageable. No matter your skill level, she’s incredibly patient and always makes time to help. One of the highlights of the class is how Dr. Ho ties the content to her own research and professional experiences, using anecdotes that make the material more engaging and relatable. The small class size (about 25 students) is another plus, you’re able to build genuine connections with like-minded peers and with Dr. Ho herself, which is such a refreshing change from large lecture halls. I can’t recommend this class enough.

Spring 2025 - The content of the class was extremely interesting, and it was actually my favorite class. I thought that the professor was very engaging and it was obvious to me that she was very passionate about the material. The class was also VERY doable and the workload was super light. We had one quiz a week and you only had to attend 5 discussion sections. There were three exams, but only your highest 2 scores counted toward your grade (if you did well on the first two, you didn't have to take the final). You could also earn extra credit by doing SONA studies. I thought the tests were very fair... some questions did include material that was only in the readings but she told us exactly what content from the readings we would be tested on. I think the people complaining about this class have never taken an actual hard class because it really was not hard and it was super interesting. I only did the readings she specifically pointed out that would be on the exams and didn't do anything outside of class besides study 1-2 days before the exams. Definitely take this class!!!
