Improves Critical Thinking – Eight guidelines to critical and scientific thinking are introduced in Chapter 1 and highlighted in the final chapters. Taking Psychology with You, in every chapter,draws on relevant research to help students tackle practical topics such as living with chronic pain and getting along with people of other cultures. Supports Learning and Comprehension – The 5 th edition introduces the Read-Recite-Review approach (3R), which is based on empirical research demonstrating its benefits for learning and memory. In a nutshell: students read a section, close the book, and actually recite out loud as much as they can about what they have just learned. They then reread and review that section to make sure they understood it correctly. Supports Instructors – Instructor and MyPyschLab test item files are tied to each chapter’s learning objectives. Here are just a few highlights of the new research added to the fifth edition:.
Chapter 2 (Personality): noncoding DNA (formerly thought to be “junk” DNA), the genetic dissimilarities of supposedly identical twins, and other findings from new research in genetics. Chapter 4 (The Brain): new research on teaching monkeys to use brain waves to control a robotic arm; using electric stimulation to restore awareness in patients who are in a minimally conscious state; using brain activity to identify which pictures a person is looking at; and induced pluripotent stem cells.
This chapter also discusses drugs that produce cognitive enhancement and methods of possibly deleting memories stored in the brain as an introduction to the field of neuroethics. Chapter 6 (Sensation and Perception): fascinating Swedish research on the ultimate illusion–body swapping–and a discussion of a leading explanation of phantom limb pain, along with an exciting new way to treat it, using a simple, inexpensive mirror. Chapter 8 (Memory): new research on working memory and its importance for staying on task; recent biological work on the role of the hippocampus not only in memory formation but also recall; research in the Horror Labyrinth of the London Dungeon on the impact of too much arousal on memory; and research on the effectiveness of the read-recite-review strategy and retrieval practice for students.
Chapter 12 (Psychotherapy): updated and expanded discussion of medications for routine emotional disorders: a critical assessment of new drugs; the increasing use of prescription cocktails; and conflicts of interest, placebo effects, and publication bias in medical research. New material includes deep brain stimulation and TMS; the use of virtual-reality treatments for Iraq veterans; the next generation of cognitive-behavior therapy, focusing on mindfulness and acceptance; a new list of unvalidated, potentially harmful therapies.
