Description

In this remarkably fresh and current new edition, Myers and DeWall’s Psychology has found extraordinarily effective ways to involve students with the remarkable research underlying our understanding of human behaviour. The text itself continues to be shaped by goals David Myers established at the outset. These were to connect students to high-impact research, to focus on developing critical thinking skills, and to present a multicultural perspective on psychology, so students can see themselves in the context of a wider world. This new edition offers 2100 research citations dated 2015–2020. With so many exciting new findings, students will see the importance and value of psychological research, and how psychology can help them make sense of the world around them.
