Incredibly difficult professor to deal with. The class itself is fair, however, if you have any issues and have proper documentation of it she is absolutely awful to deal with. She is incredibly rude and does not understand even when you repeatedly try to explain. Does not respond to emails in a timely manner and when she does shes pretty rude.

Super easy class imo, really interesting lectures and clearly very passionate about her work. You can take the quizzes until you get 100% and 2/3 writing assignments are graded only on completion. Highly recommend for psych.

Ratner is a great professor. 10B overall is not too tricky of a class, but it is statistics. Ratner is great about answering questions and his lectures are clear. He clearly wanted us to succeed.

Ratner is a really good professor and tests more than fairly. He does not record lectures so it is a really good idea to show up to class. His in-depth lectures tend to be pretty tedious and he talks real slow. I found myself having a really hard time paying attention in class. Tests are pretty easy though!

Honestly I wonder if this class has changed significantly since these negative reviews, because the class is good now. Fair exams, two writing assignments, good lectures- and she seemed nice when I talked to her. Though I didn't really have any real issues or to go office hours, so take that with a grain of salt. No textbook, just studies to read.

Very interesting and interactive lectures. Genuinely enjoyed the class and thought her exams were reasonable. Her grading percentages were very fair and didn't completely rely on just exams.

Pleasant voice, easy lectures, organized, 1Midterm18%, ArticleReview19%, Final23%, participation w unlimited attempt quiz/DB. I got high B's on both tests and was able to pull an A. 2 short readings/week. Past lectures posted. Tests in person. Article summ. graded harder than should. Screenshot rubric frm practice review(disappears) for graded one.

Solid class! Dr. Liberman knows her stuff and her lectures were fun and interesting. This was the only class of the quarter that I actually looked forward to going to every day! Grading is fair overall, and exams are very doable if you study.

Good professor, her ratings should be higher. Class structure was simple and easy. 2 exams and a graded article summary. All the other assignments are gimmes. Overall, a fun course, would recommend!

Dr. Liberman is a very kind, if research-oriented, professor. Her lectures are information heavy, but most of the work is straightforward and based solely on completion/has infinite attempts. Only one writing assignment is graded for quality, and if you tried on the practices, the real one is simple. Keep an eye out for "NOT" questions on exams!

Prof. Liberman is good! Use lectures and previous quizzes to study for exams, skimming through studies is helpful too. Her grading system is nicely balanced. Some people say she's 'like a robot' (That's rude) - she may be a bit shy, but she is super accessible and will definitely throw you a bone if you ask for one kindly!

ratner is one of the best upperdiv psych profs. lectures and exams are very straightforward in terms of material. he uses a lot of studies to explain terminology, which is helpful to understand the meaning of the term. assigns reading that is tested on exams but they're interesting so i would say j do them. highly recommend taking this class!

I genuinely can't comprehend why she has so many bad ratings - this class was super interesting and fairly easy! Professor Liberman's lectures are concise and keep you engaged throughout the class period. She is always available for help outside of class and clearly explains her expectations for assignments. The tests were also not too difficult!

I am really unsure why she has so many 1 star reviews. This class is very easy to be completely honest. As long as you go to lecture you do not have to do the article readings because she goes over the study in class. The tests a very easy as long as you listen in lecture. I would take it again if I could super easy, loved the format! Great class!

Not sure why she has so many 1/5 reviews, but this professor for Psy105 was honestly the best I can ask for. I only attended class twice (1x for mt, 1x for final) because she uploads previous year lecture videos online. Extremely fair grading criteria, easy tests, don't even have to show up and great lecturer. Would take again any day of the year.

Professor Liberman awesome! Her tests are kind of hard but so long as you read and understand the research papers assigned, you should be able to pass with a C. The wording is somewhat tricky/confusing but not enough to make you fail. Her lectures were interesting and she is very passionate about what she teaches.

One of the best professors that I have had. Very understanding and you will know what is required of you. Tests reflect well what is taught in class and are not meant to trick you. Weekly lab and homework assignments, one midterm and one final. Overall, an easy A if you pay attention and do your assignments.

Loved his lectures. Pretty engaging and easy to follow. His quizzes are straight from his lectures so there's no surprises/trick questions. Grade consisted of 8 quizzes (10 points each) - online 15 minutes due every sunday. Timing can seem a little stressful but youll be fine honestly.

She's such a sweet person! The class was mainly lectures and article readings s it was easy to keep up with. Every lecture has a dog video and she really knows what she's talking about.

Really nice guy, straightforward grading and lectures were engaging.

2 is best i can give

She made my WORST experience at UCSB. Thanks to her that I finally know how bad a prof can be. Really not accessible, unfriendly, not empathetic at all, and like a robot.

TOO MUCH WRITING ASSIGNMENTS FOR A PSYCH CLASS!!!! SHE AND THE TA RARELY REPLY TO EMAIL ON TIME. AND NOT REALLY HELPFUL

I mean this is seriously the worst grade I ever had not trying to show off. And this prof does not even round up the grades which is really confusing. She seems like really nice to give extra 1% which actually doesnt help at all.
