GO TO CLASS AND PAY ATTENTION. He mainly reads off of his slides, but he'll give a lot of clarifying details and stories that you can't get from just looking at the slides online. He is so relaxed and fun and I loved going to class! He loves answering questions in the middle of class.
The best professor EVER! Could not wait to go to class because he was so funny and interesting. Very casual in class, he wore flip-flops and would encourage us to shout out answers. You must attend class every time if you want to do well in the class. Final is half lecture and half reading. Gives a fair game sheet and final is non cumulative.
Dr. Fridlund is an amazing professor. Truly loves teaching and psychology and is very casual while teaching, he wear flip-flops to class and will encourage students to participate and shout out answers. But, you need to read and show up to lectures in order to be prepared for the final. Gives a fair game sheet so you know what is on his tests.
This class is pretty easy. You can get an A if you just do the reading and pay attention in lecture. Very interesting and entertaining professor. The reading isn't that bad and the material you learn isn't complicated at all. He is very fair and there's only 1 midterm and 1 final. (You also need 6 experiment credits which are REALLY easy to get).
Fridlund is possibly the funniest professor I've ever had. I never missed any of his lectures not only because I needed to go to them to do well in the class, but also because they were really entertaining. The midterm and final were very easy, so you'll likely get a good grade if you study.
Excellent, clear and knowledgeable about the subject. Definitely is one of my favorite professors I have had. Strongly recommend
VERY FUNNY & ENTERTAINING. Should be an easy class if you put SOME time into reading & attempt to understand the terms & concept. A lot of the material is just common sense. Loved the class & the video he showed us, but I recommend reading. I didn't read or study & got a flat B...would have done it differently if I could. I am a lazy person.
One thing that set's Fridlund aside from other Psych 1 professors is his use of the fair game sheet and the final is not cumulative. This makes me believe his class is easier than Revlin. The class itself is extremely interesting and highly recommended.
Ridiculously interesting class
best professor ive had yet. he is so interesting to listen to and gets the class going w/ his jokes. really study the fair game sheet and the tests should be fine.
Fridlund kept the class interesting and was very clear on all the concepts and ideas presented. Hes a funny guy at times too, and makes the class a fun experience.
Listening to Fridlund lecture in class was like listening to an hour and 15 minutes of comedy. his quotes and methods of memorizing the subject matter are original and hilarious. stay on top of the reading! the tests are difficult, but it is easy to stay interested in this topic because it is fascinating.
The professor made class fun and he really respected people's questions! The fairgame sheet for the midterm and final, which outlined the terms needed for studying, was really helpful and made studying really effective! Overall, a good class and great teacher!
Fridlund is one of the best professors at UCSB. He is so funny in lecture but smart and interesting too. Print out the notes before lecture, it is much easier. And read the book. Tests are fairly straight forward but you do need to study to do good on them. Use the fair game sheet and make sure you know everything. Take his class!!!
fridlund was the****. i always went to lecture even though he posted them online becuase i actually liked listening to him. there is a lot of stuff to know so you def have to do the wokr but getting an a is def possible. take this class...one of my fav psych classes by far.

He is a very good professor! His outlines are all posted online, but still need to attend lecture to fully understand. Class is really easy if you just attend lecture and read. The fair game sheets are really helpful too.
I wish I did better than I did. Just keep up with all the lectures and reading. He was a great professor. Always made class fun and interesting.

One of my favorite classes i've taken here. The class material is interesting in and of itself; he makes the lectures more interesting and funny, too. Makes fair game sheets for midterm and final, they are a great help, and actually deserve their name ("fair"). Somewhat a lot of reading, but not too bad.
Fridlund was awesome. He made intro to psych funny, interesting, and not to mention the fair-game sheet for both tests made it an easy A. I would recommend this class to EVERYONE.
AMAZING!!! Made me change my major! I love him!
Really great class! Really interesting material, and prof fridlund really knows what he is talking about. he is extremely knowledgeable and is able to share his expertise in his lectures. Never boring. Just do the reading and go to lecture and you will do well in the class.
