PSYCHOLOGY - A FRAMEWORK

Students are then given the opportunity to apply their critical thinking skills to a variety of real world situations with the What Do YOU Think?,MythConceptions, and Factoids and Fictoids features. Students have ample opportunity to assess their knowledge of the chapter content.

The end-of-chapter study guide (Your Complete Review System) contains section summaries and comprehensive tests of the chapter content, visual program, and MyPsychLab resources, all of which is tied to the numbered learning objectives. It also contains a summary of the critical thinking skills introduced in the chapter and offers two critical-thinking essay questions for students to answer.
