- Synopsis
- Each chapter of the study guide begins with a list of Learning Objectives, which are expanded from the Focus Questions found in the margins of the textbook. When you feel you have mastered the material in the chapter, you will want to revisit these objectives and make note of any that require further study. Following the Learning Objectives is a brief Chapter Overview and Chapter Outline, which will help you see at a glance how the material in the chapter is organized. Like most study guides, this one contains an array of exercises, such as fill-in-the-blank, multiple-choice, and true-false self-tests, to help you memorize information you need to know to succeed. When you do these exercises, you will be engaging in active learning, which has been shown to be more effective than passive learning (i.e., reading the material the way you would read a novel). In addition, features such as Apply What You Know, Analyze This, and On the Web will prompt you to implement concepts you have learned, sharpen your analytic and research skills, use your creativity to explore resources that psychologists use in carrying out their work, and apply your critical thinking ability to evaluate "pop" psychology on the Internet.
