Book Overview
Written by best-selling textbook author Richard Gross, this fourth edition offers students detailed summaries of thirty-three research reports and studies drawn from all major areas of psychology. Designed to be accessible and reader-friendly, the book covers all twenty studies from the new OCR specifications, and it also includes two new studies. 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 methodological issues, subsequent research, and applications and implications. Each summary is also followed by exercise questions. 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.
