Roney is an awesome professor. Classes are very lecture heavy, I passed but hey, Cs get degrees? Even though I didn't do that well, I still attended every lecture and learned quite a lot of interesting things that I wasn't expecting to get out of this class. Wish this class was offered twice a week instead of once a week though!

By far, one of my favorite courses on campus. It's definitely based on evolutionary terms so I wouldn't recommend it if you're not a science person. He is very passionate about this field and gives GREAT lectures. The tests are NOT easy but I would definitely take another class taught by him.

As someone who has been passionate about evolutionary psychology, this has been one of my favorite courses. Professor Roney is both passionate about his subject and a terrific teacher of the material. He is clever, funny, and has some terrific insights on the study of human mating. It won't necessarily be easy, but you will love the the course!

Roney is one of the most passionate professors I have seen at UCSB with evolutionary psychology material. He makes lecture really funny with his jokes about the topic. Roney likes to see people participate and raise their hand. He tries to learn the names of those who ask questions and it does seem to boost your grade.

Great class. Roney was very helpful and clear. The material can be difficult at times but he does a great job explaining it.

No textbook, instead weekly readings (interesting and not too long). Easy B+/A-, beyond that, make sure you know the content very, very well. You'll want to come to lecture to better understand the material, instead of just reading off the powerpoints and ditching class. Yolo.
