Product Information
Key Studies in Psychology, 4th Edition offers students full and detailed summaries of 33 research reports and studies drawn from all major areas of psychology: cognitive, social, developmental, abnormal, biopsychology, comparative and cutlure, identity and individual differences. Before each summary, the study is put into a theoretical, practical and/or socio-historical context, and details of its aims, hypotheses, method and design are presented. Following each summary, an evaluation of the study is provided, focusing on major theoretical and methodogical issues, subsequent research, and applications and implications. Each summary is also followed by exercise questions which require the reader to think critically about methodological, statistical, ethical as well as theoretical features of the study. Answers to these questions are given at the back of the book. The book gives students excellent first-hand experience of reading journal articles and the chosen key studies will be of great value in practical work, essay-writing and preparation of seminar papers. Key Studies in Psychology 4th Edition is designed to be accessible and reader-friendly. All 20 studies from the new OCR specification are covered and it also includes 2 new studies. The book is suitable for all A and AS level students as well as Psychology undergraduates and the interested general reader.Product Identifiers

Key studies
I have spent the best part of my course, hunting high and low for the main key studies! I wish I had found this book sooner. It has main studies which are taught in the level 3 psychology course (I cannot speak for further education) a few studies; bobo doll experiment; the case of little Hans; Pavlov's dog etc... Definitely recommend to anyone that is writing assignments and is taking n need of good referencing material. It is also an insightful read even if you are not partaking in psychology.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
