Key Studies in Psychology

This leading textbook for A Level and undergraduate students has been revised and updated to remain as relevant as ever. It is a compilation of classic and contemporary research reports designed to help students explore the subject in greater depth and boost their exam and coursework grades. There are a number of changes made to this new edition: * The inclusion of four new key studies that highlight current areas of research, including theory of mind and parapsychology. * Details of aims, hypotheses, design, and procedure are now introduced before the actual detailed summary, thus improving accessibility. * Studies are placed into their historical, theoretical, and practical context to give students full background information. *A larger format with a greatly improved text design ensures that information is clearly presented and easier to understand.
