[[Introduction to Psychology]] ([[IPSY]]), also known as [[Topics in Psychology]], was the original [[CTY]] Psychology course. This was before the [[Cognitive Psychology]] course, as that was considered an easier approach to this course. Psychology in the 90's was considered one of the hardest CTY courses. This course was offered at [[Baltimore]], [[Carlisle]], [[Clinton]], [[Lancaster]], [[Los Angeles]] and [[Saratoga Springs]].
