Single best text to guide graduate students in psychology with their writing...This was published in
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This helpful book was published in 2003 and the most recent APA manual was published in 2001 so this IS NOT an out-of-date text as far as APA style is considered, as one user incorrectly stated. I find Sternberg's text to be a wonderful guide, especially his 26 rules for writing a psychology paper, his suggestions for completing a comprehensive literature review, and his discussion of the 8 common misconceptions about psychology papers. Worth every penny.
Great Resource for Psychology Students
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This small book covers a lot of ground on writing scientific papers. It gives concise, useful information in an easy to read format. There are many practical tips included throughout the various chapters (such as using an outline in the early stages of the paper).There are a few things that are outdated (simply because APA has a new edition of the Style Manual out since this was published). However, the basic principles are timeless and this book is a wise purchase for any student in the field.
