Psychology

NEW! MyPsychLab edition available October 2007! Text comes automatically with MyPsychLab for no additional charge! Includes end of chapter study tips directing students to MyPsychLab for further study! No changes to pagination from Cicccarelli/Meyer Psychology 1e.

For undergraduate introductory psychology courses at both two-year and four-year schools.

The most learner-centered and assessment-driven text available.

Using the APA undergraduate psychology learning outcomes, the authors establish clear learning objectives for students and tie the text assessment to these objectives. Praised for a very engaging writing style, comprehensive coverage of key research, and strong pedagogical features, Ciccarelli focuses on getting students to actually read their textbook. Student feedback from numerous class tests and instructor feedback from an extensive reviewing process emphasize the appeal of Ciccarelli's approach to teaching and learning in today's classroom. 

Ciccarelli/Meyer used the APA learning outcomes and assessment guidelines to develop clear learning objectives for students–the learning objectives are discussed at the beginning of each chapter and integrated into the chapter content. Each of the assessment and teaching supplements use the learning objectives as a framework for the content. The APA assessment guidelines were followed when developing all the assessment tools for the text. 

• See pg. xxii in Preface for a correlation between the APA Learning Outcomes and Assessment Guidelines to the Learning Objectives in Ciccarelli/Meyer.
• Clearly defined Learning Objectives start every chapter, are phrased as questions, and appear within the content of the chapter where they are addressed.
• Chapter Summary and Concept Maps are correlated to the Learning Objectives of the chapter.
• ALL supplementary materials (Student Study Guide, Instructor Resource Manual, Test Item File, Classroom Response System questions, PowerPoints, etc) are correlated to chapter Learning Objectives creating a structured, integrated and related system for inside and outside the classroom.
  

MyPsychLab is the easy-to-use solution that helps you assess student performance and adapt course content without investing extra time or resources.

MyPsychLab focuses on three specific areas:

• A robust diagnostic to determine students mastery of key content areas.
• An easy to use reporting system that gives instant feedback to students and provides instructors with reports of overall class performance.
• A unique opportunity to adjust and adapt: directing students to varied assignments and providinginstructorswith extra lecture notes, video clips, and activities that reflect the content areas their class is still struggling with.

Ciccarelli focuses on getting the students to actually read their textbook. Student and professor reviewers tell us the narrative style, student voice questions, integrated boxes and other Ciccarelli features make this book user friendly and unique. The design is as refreshing as the content.

• Chapter Opening Prologues, see pg. 208 in Chapter 6: Memory, They Tell Me You're My Daughter
• Student Voice Questions, pg. 222
• Quick Quizzes, pg. 218
• Concept Maps at end of chapter, pg. 246-247

Over 150 manuscript reviewers evaluated the writing style for coverage and implementation of a useful and student-friendly pedagogical framework prior to publication. In addition, expert reviewers on critical topic areas were contacted to provide feedback on the currency and accuracy of all research. More than 50 focus group participants contributed to decisions regarding text organization and content coverage as well. To further demonstrate our commitment to this project, a full-time developmental editor spent three years on over three drafts of the manuscript--editing the text line by line for clarity.

To date, over 150 schools nationally have adopted Ciccarelli!

Supplements: Co-author Glenn Meyer led the team of supplements authors to write the most important components including the Test Item File in conjunction with the final draft of the manuscript. This collaboration resulted in tight integration and significant quality assurance of all components. In addition:

• Three focus groups were dedicated exclusively to supplements, resulting in significant innovations to the tools you rely on most such as the Test Item File and the Instructor’s Resource Manual.
• Key components, including the Test Item File, PowerPoint presentations, Classroom Response content and the Study Guide have been class-tested and revised prior to publication to ensure quality and integration in the package.
• All components have been thoroughly reviewed, proofread and copyedited.
• Prentice Hall is developing the most cutting-edge assessment software that will allow students to have a better grasp on what they need to study, and instructors to have a better grasp of what needs to be revisited in lecture.

Ciccarelli/Meyer Teaching and Assessment Package:

• MyPsychLab: easy to use online assessment resource that allows instructors to assess student performance and adapt course content without investing additional time or resources. Go to: www.mypsychlab.com to learn more!
• Print and online supplements developed around the learning objectives–ensuring consistency in content.
• IRM–binder and IRCD, TIF, Test Gen, PPT (w/CRS questions), PH Teaching Psychology Video Series (new series with over 100 clips), color transparencies, SG, CW, OneKey, SafariX–all developed with supplements coordinator overseeing content to ensure consistency and quality. Supplements class tested and reviewed in development to ensure quality.
• Note: Test bank contains a Total Assessment Guide (easy to see how many definition/conceptual/application questions per chapter). Plus 2 ready made quizzes/chapter. Rationales provided for the correct answer and the closest distracters in m/c questions–allows professors to see the logic of the questions when reviewing them and content is ready if professors want to generate an answer key for their students. IRM fully integrates all the presentation supplements.

Prologue: To capture interest immediately, a chapter opening story, or Prologue, is included.

Learning Objectives: Based on APA Learning Goals and Outcomes guidelines, each chapter also begins with a fairly detailed Learning Objectives section. The learning objectives appear in question format and begin each major section of the text. The chapter summary and all of the ancillary material is organized around these objectives, making this text a fully integrated system of study.

Student Voice Questions:  Questions at the beginning of each text section are useful in helping students develop their critical thinking and communication skills. These questions guide the narrative, giving the text a conversational tone, which helps keep students reading and also helps them relate to the concepts in the text more personally. The questions have been written and reviewed by students.

Practice Quiz: How Much Do You Know? appears after each major segment of material within the chapter and a longer practice test, Test Yourself, appears at the end of each chapter.  All of these test materials consist of multiple-choice questions. Students often have a difficult time understanding multiple-choice questions, and practice is the best way to overcome that limitation.

Throughout each chapter, when a topic has a relationship to one in another chapter, a <LINK> symbol is provided, with instructions for the student to look at the related topic. These links should help students realize the connections between and among all the various viewpoints and research in the field of psychology.

Running Glossary: A running glossary of psychology terms is absolutely necessary, as most students will not even glance at a glossary in the back of the chapter or book. The terms are in bold and defined in the margins.

Difficult Terms: For many ESL students some general vocabulary terms are difficult.  A lack of vocabulary is a big stumbling block for these students, and in this text, these more difficult vocabulary terms are defined at the bottom of the page on which they first appear. This is a feature that no other introductory text includes.

Other features of each chapter are special sections covering interesting topics related to the chapter material, especially topics of diversity and cultural interest. This content is not set off from the text in boxes; with the content being part of the narrative, it is more likely that students will read the enriching material. Practice quizzes and the tests at the end of each chapter include questions on this material, further encouraging students to read.  For example, in one Psychology in the News feature there is a discussion of cochlear implants and how former Miss America Heather Whitestone McCallum benefited from this surgery. In another section called Classic Research in Psychology, the experiment in extrinsic motivation and creativity conducted by psychologist Teresa Amabile is discussed.

At the end of every chapter, a section called Applying Psychology to Everyday Life takes something from the chapter and relates it to the real world. For example, in Chapter Two, research regarding the differences between male and female brain activity and structure is presented. Each special section is followed by questions that are intended to stimulate discussion and critical thinking processes.

Chapter Summary: A detailed Chapter Summary, organized by the inclusion of the learning objective questions in the appropriate sections,  is also a must and the final step in surveying the chapter for students using the SQ3R. This summary hits all the important parts of the chapter, almost like the student’s own notes. An end of chapter concept map is also included–reinforcing all the major objectives of the chapter.

This is a first edition text.

  Real Science. Real Life.  Presents a balanced Scientist - Practitioner - Educator approach to understanding Abnormal Psychology.   

   

  Several features distinguish this text from other currently available textbooks.  First, the base of abnormal psychology rests on knowledge generated through scientific studies and clinical practice.  This text will emphasize this rich blend throughout.   Second, it is increasingly clear that most forms of adult abnormal behavior either begin in childhood or have childhood precursors.  In this text, we highlight what is known about the developmental trajectory of each condition.  Such a focus, we believe, is instrumental in helping students gain some insight into the etiology of maladaptive conditions. Third, we integrate biological findings with findings from social and behavioral sciences to foster the perspective that abnormal behavior is complex and subject to many different forces, and highlight how these variables often interact in a reciprocal fashion.  Fourth, scientific findings with respect to race and gender are discussed with respect to each condition.  This includes a discussion of prevalence, differences in symptom manifestation, and any known etiological differences.  Importantly, an effort is made to “bring to life” the nature of these conditions by providing vivid clinical descriptions.   In addition to short descriptions that will be used liberally throughout each chapter, a fully integrated case study will be presented at the end of each chapter, again illustrating the interplay of biological, psychosocial and emotional factors.

  For courses in Abnormal Psychology and Psychopathology.

   

  Psychology in a Changing World puts a human face on the study of Abnormal Psychology.

   

  Within the field of abnormal psychology, research developments continue to sharpen the understanding of abnormal behavior. In Abnormal Psychology in a Changing World, Nevid, Rathus, and Greene endeavor to bring these advances to students in a way that both stimulates interest and makes complex material understandable. More importantly, however, they recognize there is a basic human dimension to the study of abnormal psychology.  The approach the authors take is to help students enter the world of people suffering from the range of disorders they encounter in the text.  By including many illustrative case examples drawn from the authors' own case experiences and those of other practitioners, an accompanying video casebook of interviews with real people diagnosed with different disorders, and a landmark pedagogical feature of first-person narratives from people struggling with psychological disorders, Abnormal Psychology in a Changing World 7e helps put a human face on the study of abnormal psychology.

  Brief Description | Buy from myPearsonStore

  

  This innovative, 13-chapter text examines psychological issues from the levels of the brain, person, and social world to help students actively apply psychology to their lives.

   

  Through their own research, clinical work, and experiences as teachers, Stephen Kosslyn and Robin Rosenberg have found that exploring psychology from multiple perspectives further enhances learning. Examining psychological concepts from the levels of the brain (biological factors), the person (beliefs, desires, and feelings), and the world (social, cultural, and environmental factors) and their interactions helps students organize and integrate topics within and across chapters and actively apply psychology to their lives.

   

  This briefer version of the authors’ comprehensive Psychology in Context, 3e combines the introductory chapter with research methods, consciousness with stress/health coverage, and cognition with intelligence for three fewer chapters than the comprehensive Kosslyn/Rosenberg text. It also features end-of-chapter practice tests to aid students in mastering concepts.

  With a focus on the constant interactions of events, this text helps students understand the foundations of the discipline from the vantage points of the brain, the person, and the world (group).

   

  Through their own research, clinical work, and experiences as teachers, Stephen Kosslyn and Robin Rosenberg have found that exploring psychology from three integrated perspectives further enhances learning. Examining psychological concepts from the interactions of the brain (biological factors), the person (beliefs, desires, and feelings) and the world (social, cultural, and environmental factors) helps students organize and integrate topics within and across chapters and actively apply psychology to their lives.

   

  The third edition continues to provide the most comprehensive yet accessible coverage of neuroscience for the introductory psychology student.  The neuroscience is placed solidly in a psychological context; facts about the brain are not described for their own sake, but rather to show how such facts illuminate psychology.  The third edition also features pedagogical enhancements such as “chunking” the material into smaller units to help students more readily learn and retain information.  Each chapter also closes with a “Review and Remember!” note-taking exercise that encourages students to jot down their own thoughts and memory devices alongside the author-provided summary.

  Social Psychology: Goals in Interaction reveals the motives behind social behavior—why people love, hate, lead, and follow, for example- and bridges the person and the social situation.

   

  A unique integrated approach to social behavior:  What do terrorist bombings, testosterone, one-minute “hurry dates,” Facebook, and political smear campaigns have to do with one another?  Social Psychology textbooks typically provide a laundry list of interesting, but disconnected facts and theories.  This standard approach grabs interest but falls short as a way to learn.  Kenrick, Neuberg, and Cialdini instead provide an integrative approach, one that both builds upon traditional lessons learned by the field and pushes those lessons to the cutting-edge.  By organizing each chapter around the two broad questions–“What are the goals that underlie the behavior in question?” and “What factors in the person and the situation connect to each goal?” –the book presents the discipline as a coherent framework for understanding human behavior.  Expanding he integrative theme in this edition, KNC highlights social psychology as the ultimate bridge discipline–connectingthe different findings and theories of social psychology, exploring the field’s links to other areas of psychology (e.g., clinical, organizational, and neuroscience), and bridging to other important academic disciplines (e.g., anthropology, biology, economics, medicine, and law). 

   

  Opening mysteries: Each chapter begins with a mystery, designed not only to grab student interest, but also to organize the ensuing discussion of scientific research: Why did the beautiful and talented artist Frida Kahlo fall for the much older, and much less attractive, Diego Rivera, and then tolerate his numerous extramarital affairs? What psychological forces led the Dalai Lama, the most exalted personage in Tibet, to forge a lifelong friendship with a foreign vagabond openly scorned by Tibetan peasants? Why would a boy falsely confess to murdering his own mother?

   

  The latest scholarship, engaging writing, engrossing real-world stories and the authors' strengths as renowned researchers and expert teachers, all come together to make the fifth edition of Social Psychology: Goals in Interaction an accessible and engaging read for students, while providing a modern and cohesive approach for their teachers.

  Brief Description

  

  Social Psychology: Goals in Interaction explores how social behavior is goal-directed and a result of interactions between the person and the situation.

   

  In addition to a beautiful new design in the 4e, Social Psychology: Goals in Interaction has two elements that continue to set it apart from other social psychology textbooks:

   

  A unique integrated approach to social behavior: Rather than providing a laundry list of unconnected facts and theories, the authors organize each chapter around the two broad questions: (1) What are the goals that underlie the behavior in question? (2) What factors in the person and the situation connect to each goal? The book thus presents the discipline as a coherent framework for understanding human behavior.  The new subtitle, “Goals in Interactions” underscores this integrated approach to understanding behavior. 

   

  Opening mysteries: Each chapter begins with a mystery of social behavior, designed not only to grab student interest, but also to organize the ensuing discussion of scientific research: Why would a poor black washerwoman give away her hard-earned life-savings? What psychological forces led the Dalai Lama, the most exalted personage in Tibet, to forge a lifelong friendship with a foreign vagabond openly scorned by Tibetan peasants? Why would a boy falsely confess to murdering his own mother?

   

  The latest scholarship, engaging writing, engrossing real-world stories and the authors' strengths as renowned researchers and expert teachers, all come together to make the fourth edition of Social Psychology: Goals in Interaction an accessible and engaging read for students, while providing a modern and cohesive approach for their teachers.
