Title overview

Psychology: From Inquiry to Understanding continues to emphasize the importance of scientific-thinking skills and teaches students how to test their assumptions and motivates them to use scientific thinking skills to better understand the field of psychology in their everyday lives. Students will emerge with the “psychological smarts,” or open-minded skepticism, needed to distinguish psychological misinformation from credible, useful psychological information.
