With every carefully revised, meticulously updated edition, Psychology by David Myers and Nathan DeWall continues to be the best-selling introductory psychology text/media resource. And students don't just use it—they love it. How do we know?  They tell us.

Students contact the authors regularly to give them feedback and to thank them.  This engagement in the text—and positive feedback from students—extends to the integrated media resources in LaunchPad.  The innovations around the text and media rest on the same foundations that have always distinguished each Myers/DeWall revision—exhaustive updating, captivating writing, and the merging of rigorous science with a broad human perspective that engages both the mind and the heart.

Features

Trusted author team. Psychology offers the quality of writing and resources that instructors and students can rely on. This quality extends to the supplements and media which are author-driven and integrated with the textbook.

UPDATED "Assess Your Strengths" online activities.  Now available with each chapter, the significantly revised Assess Your Strengths activities ask students to apply what they are learning from the text to their own lives and experiences by considering key “strengths.” For each of these activities, the authors start by offering a personalized video introduction, explaining how that strength ties into the content of the chapter. Next, they ask students to assess themselves on the strength (critical thinking, quality of sleep, self-control, relationship strength, healthy belonging, hope, and more) using scales developed by researchers across psychological science. After showing students their results, the authors offer tips for nurturing that strength in students’ own lives. Finally, students take a quiz to help solidify their learning.

How Would You Know online activities.
These online activities engage students in the scientific process, showing how psychological research begins with a question—and how key decision points can alter the meaning and value of a psychological study.  In a fun, interactive environment, students learn about important aspects of research methods and analysis, such as random assignment, validity, and reliability.
LaunchPad
Psychology, Twelfth Edition is accompanied by its own dedicated version of Worth Publishers’ breakthrough online course space, which offers:

  • Pre-built Units for each chapter, curated by David Myers and C. Nathan DeWall, with media for that chapter organized and ready to assign or customize to suit your course.
  • All online resources for the text in one location, including an interactive e-book, LearningCurve adaptive quizzing, and the How Would You Know and Assess Your Strengths features
  • Intuitive and useful analytics, with a Gradebook that lets you see how your class is doing individually and as a whole.
  • A streamlined and intuitive interface that lets instructors build an entire course in minutes.
  • The complete and interactive e-book.


LearningCurve
In a game-like format, LearningCurve adaptive and formative quizzing helps get students more deeply involved in the coursework. It offers:

  • A unique learning path for each student, with quizzes shaped by each individual’s correct and incorrect answers.
  • A Personalized Study Plan, to guide students’ preparation for class and for exams.
  • Feedback for each question with live links to relevant e-book pages, guiding students to the reading they need to do to improve their areas of weakness.

New to This Edition

Over 1100 new citations. With so much happening in psychological science, this new edition includes more than 1100 new citations to engage students and give them the most current view of the field. For a summary of changes, chapter-by-chapter, see the catalog page.

Visuals often tell a better story than words. New infographics have been added to each chapter to engage students in thinking critically about key psychological concepts (parenting styles, gender bias, group polarization, therapeutic lifestyle changes, and more).

NEW "Concept Practice" activities. With over 120 activities covering topics across the full spectrum of introductory psychology, Concept Practice offers an effective interactive way to help students understand basic information about the course's foundational ideas. Each brief activity (only five minutes to complete) addresses one or two concepts, in a consistent format -- review, practice, quiz, and conclusion -- in which each section must be completed before students can move forward.

Reduced length. With more to do in the intro psych course- -and with less time- - the authors have reduced the length of the Twelfth Edition by 50 pages to help you cover as much content as possible.

New Media Option!
Achieve Read & Practice

David Myers received his B.A. in chemistry from Whitworth University, and his psychology Ph.D. from the University of Iowa. He has spent his career at Hope College, Michigan, where he has taught dozens of introductory psychology sections. Hope College students have invited him to be their commencement speaker and voted him “outstanding professor.” His research and writings have been recognized by the Gordon Allport Intergroup Relations Prize, an Honored Scientist award from the Federation of Associations in Behavioral & Brain Sciences, an award for Distinguished Service on Behalf of Social-Personality Psychology , a Presidential Citation from APA Division 2, election as an American Association for the Advancement of Science Fellow, and three honorary doctorates.

With support from National Science Foundation grants, Myers' scientific articles have appeared in three dozen scientific periodicals, including Science, American Scientist, Psychological Science, and the American Psychologist. In addition to his scholarly writing and his textbooks for introductory and social psychology, he also digests psychological science for the general public. His writings have appeared in four dozen magazines, from Today's Education to Scientific American.

David Myers has chaired his city’s Human Relations Commission, helped found a thriving assistance center for families in poverty, and spoken to hundreds of college, community, and professional groups worldwide.

Drawing on his experience, he also has written articles and a book (A Quiet World) about hearing loss, and he is advocating a transformation in American assistive listening technology see www.hearingloop.org). For his leadership, he has received awards from the American Academy of Audiology, the hearing industry, and the Hearing Loss Association of America.
