Description

"It is our privilege to welcome you to the third Canadian edition of An Introduction to Psychological Science. We would not have had this opportunity without the support and feedback of the instructors who have adopted this book for their classes, and from their students (and our own) who have learned from this book. Why is it time for a third edition? As you should already know, psychological science progresses quickly, and we want to ensure we represent significant advances or theoretical challenges that are happening right now. In addition, there are examples and applications of psychological principles in the media all of the time, and we want to include these in the learning experience, whether in the text or in online activities. While keeping the book up-to-date with the latest research and current events, we also want to improve on our presentation of classic studies, research methods, and so on that remain in the foundation of our discipline. This is where the feedback from our readers has been so important. Thanks to everyone who has shared what they have enjoyed about this book as well as what we might be able to do better--we believe we have, in fact, done better!"--
