Jim Kalat's best-selling INTRODUCTION TO PSYCHOLOGY takes a "critical thinking" approach to the major theories and concerns of psychology. By prompting students to ask themselves questions like "How was this conclusion reached?" and "Does the evidence really support it?" Kalat encourages students to use scientific principles. He walks students through the hypothesis method-results-interpretation steps of psychological research that psychologists use when attempting to answer questions about human intellect, emotion, and behavior. Kalat's approach is proven to help students separate what merely sounds plausible from what is scientifically provable -- both in the psychology classroom and beyond it. With his humorous writing style and hands-on "Try It Yourself" exercises, Kalat puts students at ease and gets them involved with even with the most intimidating concepts. In addition, he "chunks" the material in a "modular format" (within each chapter), so students can master one module at a time and build confidence as they go. These modules are also convenient for instructors to assign to match the way they teach the course. Kalat's supplement package includes substantial resources for professors and students alike. Students receive access to the Book Companion Web Site with a personalized Self-Study Assessment program for additional study and review. Instructors receive an Instructor's Manual and a Test Bank (now in a three-ring binder format) with item analysis and much more. See the Supplements section for more details.
