psych 101

Basic mind course

Psych 101 refers to an introductory psychology course, the kind taken by college freshmen.

By extension, it describes basic psychological concepts that educated people are expected to know: That's psych 101—people rationalize their choices after the fact.

Often used dismissively to suggest something is elementary or obvious: You don't need a therapist to tell you that; it's psych 101.
