Cognition: Theory and Practice provides the link between theory, experimental findings, and ordinary human activity, showing students how the field of cognitive psychology relates to their everyday lives. Engagingly written, the book captivates students by explaining common experiences such as why answering a cell phone while driving is as dangerous as closing your eyes for a half-second, but talking with your passenger for a minute can be perfectly safe. Research coverage draws heavily on the rapidly accumulating discoveries of human neuroscience and brain imaging.

Features

The Most Current Research in Cognition Available
Revlin presents the rapidly accumulating discoveries in human neuroscience that have identified brain functioning with psychological experience.
 
Emphasis on Cognition Throughout the Life Span Across Cultures
Throughout, Revlin shows how basic cognitive processes are influenced by genetic and environmental factors.
 
Demonstration Boxes in every chapter allow students to actively experience the cognitive phenomena and classic experiments they are reading about.  Topics include:
• assessing attentional impairments that result from concussions
• examining the thought processes of people facing moral dilemmas
 
Focus on Methods Boxes make essential components of research techniques clear to the reader. These boxes describe the attentional blink paradigm, memory scanning, lexical decision tasks, reading span tests, and more.
 
Helpful Pedagogy includes chapter outlines, opening quotations, key term lists, section and chapter summaries, plus "Check Your Knowledge" and "Apply Your Knowledge" questions for class discussion or writing assignments.

Authors

Russell Revlin

Russell Revlin is associate professor of psychology at the University of California–Santa Barbara. His academic journey began when, as a biopsychology student, he came across a tattered book on reasoning and problem solving at UCLA that expanded his view of psychology. The following year he was graduate student in cognitive psychology at Carnegie Mellon University, where he earned a PhD. After a postdoctoral fellowship in psycholinguistics from Stanford University, Dr. Revlin established his laboratory in human inference, focusing on how memory, language, and imaginal processes contribute to our ability to reason about novel situations and domains.
