Haha - This prof was great.only opened the book for glossary page.went to class a lot (not mandatory)but only took notes 1/2 the time.purchased AS NOTES...VERY HELPFUL!!most test questions were from lecture, some book which the T.A. made (our T.A. sucked); however if you study you'll do fine.my only complaint was T.A.

Really good professor. Whatever he goes over in class is what is going to be on the test, so make sure you go to class. He has no power points so pay attention. Go to class and you will do good.

Really interesting guy, outlines the class before starting lecture every day, writes the AS notes so BUY THEM BUY THEM BUY THEM. You don't really ever have to go to lecture but you should if there's nothing else to do. The book isn't really that important-- there will be about 5-10 out of 60 q's from the book, but you can guess. Recommended overall

Go to class and try to stay awake. I don't know if it was because of his back problems, but this class was miserable. Ruined psych for me... since this class I've lost most of my interest in Psychology and its poor attempt at trying to examine the self.

Super nice teacher, very funny and he knows what hes talking about. He is very helpful in trying to make you understand the material. You should go to lecture b/c all of the test ques. will be from the notes. You dont have to read the book only has 15 ques. The tests are hard if you dont study, go to test reviews.

AWESOME. probably one of the best, if not the best, prof. in psych department. he's hilarious, interesting, brilliant but humble. take any of his courses and consider yourself lucky you ever had the oppportunity

This class is related to 102, 138 and 117. I like it A LOT. About 1/3 questions from reader, and 2/3 from lecture. DO THE READINGS! Stan is the man! You'll think this class is really cool. 1 midterm, 1 final. It's all good. Nothing tricky, just study the info. If you are an intelligent psych major who "gets it" most of the time, you'll do great! :)

Interesting material and stories. Stan has a lot of experience in the field. Buy the AS notes and read the book. Class isn't as easy as it sounds, but it is definetly do-able.

Definitely keep up with the book and reading, but you will learn a lot from lecture. The class is cool because it deals with topics you don't really hear much about. Dr. Klein is really the man. I should have studied more but I still got a B+.

Awesome class. One of the best Psych classes of the upper division 100~109 series. Proffesor's got great humor, he draws well, lectures are always high in clarity. Exams are fair. Just go to lecture and take supplementary notes upon subscribing to A.S. Notes. Professor himself writes these and it's EXTREMELY HELPFUL!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

A.S. Notes-amazing! Writting by him. BEST professor i have ever had!! Amazing, interesting, funny. No need to go to class if you have A.S. notes..but GO!! Such a great interesting class its worth every second sitting in that seat! I absolutely love this guy!!! Can't wait to have him again!

The best teacher and class I have taken in my life--seriously! The man is a genius. Do yourself a favor and show up to class. I got a B but getting an A is very possible...just dont get too hammered while studying for the final

LOVED this class! I know a lot of people are posting that they barely attended class... but go! His lectures are great and he's so funny, you'd be missing out on the quality of his personality if you didn't go!

Awesome class, get the AS notes for sure. Not a hard class if you go to class and read the book and AS notes. I managed an A, and I didn't even take notes.

Go to class or buy the AS notes. I went to about 5 classes all quarter, read all the AS notes, and the summeries of the chapters and managed a B. Hes hilarious, so time flies. Take as many classes with Prof. Klein as you can!!

He changed my life! He is AMAZING!

Klein is awesome! I actually looked forward to going to this class, and the midterms and final were easy. He has no slides which is really helpful cause you can actually focus on what he is saying. This class is highly recommended

we need more professors like him.... he teaches with real world thought... he is truly amazing....

man, klein is so cool! simple...to the point, doesn't dwell on anything he doesnt need to. midterm and final were multiple choice. if you go to class and pay attention while he talks, youll be fine. hes funny too...

Klein is the coolest! Totally straight forward, totally clear and helpful. If you study, you'll do well. If you go to the review session, you'll do really well. If you show up to class and don't get an A, you must have been sleeping.

the best psych professor hands down..very student friendly teaching methods...no power points so u never have to catch up...makes all the subject material enjoyable because he is funny and knows all the material very well..take any of his classes

pretty interesting class and not too difficult. definitely worth taking.

For 117, I Heart Klein!, and for 148, I still heart Klein!!! He is still my favorite psych professor at UCSB. This guy is hilarious and so fun to listen to. Psy 148 is a cool class, but it gets confusing towards the latter half of the class. Take him at the Ventura center, the classes are much smaller and

Both very interesting and very easy. Buy the AS notes...it's definately worth the 30 bucks! Don't bother taking notes in class because the AS notes are better than anything you can write yourself!
