Last edition Elsevier Provides the framework to go from inquiry to understanding. Psychology: From Inquiry to Understanding, 3/e, 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. By applying scientific thinking, students can more intelligently evaluate claims about both laboratory research and daily life. In the end, students will emerge with the «psychological smarts,» or open-minded skepticism, needed to distinguish psychological misinformation from credible, useful psychological information.
