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.
How does memory work? Who is the "distractor" in your family? What was the "car crash" experiment? The Psychology Book is your visual guide to the complex and fascinating world of human behavior.
The book offers a comprehensive treatment of core concepts, grounded in both classic studies and current and emerging research. The text also includes coverage of the DSM-5 in examinations of psychological disorders.
There's nothing more fascinating-- or frightening-- than the ins and outs of the human mind. With this comprehensive guide, you'll achieve a better understanding of yourself-- and everyone else around you, too!
The text also moves beyond an exclusive focus on the development of North American and European psychologies to explore the development of psychologies in other indigenous contexts, especially from the mid-20th-century onward.
