| dc.description.abstract | The new Psychology: Core Concepts, 8th ed., comes in an electronic format, available from the “cloud” both on standard computers and mobile devices. The features you know and love from the seven earlier editions are all there: Key Questions, Core Concepts, the Chapter Problem, Critical Thinking Applied, and an emphasis on diversity and cross-cultural psychology—all presented with an engaging writing style and clear examples of every concept. The new electronic format takes reader interactivity with the material to a new level through videos, slideshows, an interactive virtual brain, and click-and-reveal activities aimed to promote deeper thinking and analysis of topics and concepts. Assessment activities are woven into each section, and include brief “journaling” questions and Shared Writing (a form of discussion board activity), all carefully crafted to encourage and improve critical thinking. And, of course, the new edition introduces many new and exciting developments in psychology. | en_us |
