In this version of Psychology, Twelfth Edition, David Myers and Nathan DeWall break down the new edition's 16 chapters into 53 modules, assignable in any sequence and brief enough to be read in one sitting. It’s a format favored by a wide range of students and instructors, one that’s supported by substantial research showing that students working with shorter reading assignments develop a deeper understanding of the material.

The new edition of Modules includes the same new features and content of Psychology, Twelfth Edition, including hundreds of new citations and new infographics. And like Psychology, Twelfth Edition is more than ever a fully integrated text/media learning package, with the modular edition’s LaunchPad now featuring dozens of new Concept Practice activities.

Features

Trusted, fully engaged author team. David Myers’ partnership with coauthor C. Nathan DeWall matches two dedicated educators and scholars, each passionate about teaching psychological science through writing and interactive media.

Modular format. With its brief self-contained modules and teach-in-any-order organization, Psychology in Modules lets instructors teach exactly the material they want. For students, the modular format means more manageable reading assignments.

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 in to 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 to engage students and give them the most current view of the field.

New infographics in each chapter to engage students in thinking critically about key psychological concepts (parenting styles, gender bias, group polarization, therapeutic lifestyle changes, and more).

120 new “Concept Practice” activities available in LaunchPad offer 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 this version to 53 modules (about 50 pages less than the previous edition).

New Media Option! 

Achieve Read & Practice

Achieve Read & Practice
marries Macmillan Learning’s mobile-accessible eBook with the acclaimed LearningCurve adaptive quizzing. It is an easy-to-use yet exceptionally powerful teaching and learning option that streamlines the process of increasing student engagement and understanding. instructors can assign reading simply, students can complete assignments on any device, and the cost is significantly less than that of a printed book.

With Achieve Read & Practice:

• Instructors can arrange and assign chapters and sections from the eBook in any sequence they prefer.

• Assignments come with LearningCurve quizzes offering individualized question sets, feedback, and eBook references that adapt to correct and incorrect answers. If students struggle with a particular topic, they are encouraged to re-read the material and answer a few short additional questions.

• The Read & Practice gradebook tracks student performance individually and for the whole class, helping instructors prepare for class and one-on-one discussions.

Here’s what students are writing to the authors…

Your text goes above and beyond; your command of language, the occasional witty remarks and puns, the frequent inclusion of concrete psychological experiments pertaining to the respective subject--- I often found myself nodding my head while reading along, as I felt like the information I was taking in was substantiated with real-life applications.

  • Sabrina Halavi, Santa Monica College

This is one of the best textbooks I've read, and thank you for making it so user friendly. It's very relatable, and it's actually my favorite textbook. My mom is a psychiatrist and I recommended it to her!

  • Sarah Altman-Ezzard, Vassar College

A better textbook could not have been chosen for this course. I have worked hard in this course, but I am already feeling that I am going to miss it when it is done. I can hardly return this book (rental), plus all the notes on the sides! I should count the "wow"s I have written along these pages…!!

  • Viviana Rose, Angelo State University

I wanted to email you to say thank you, and that I think your textbook is absolutely fantastic. I have never enjoyed reading a textbook so much. Thanks for writing such an excellent book and helping to make my learning experience fun and effective.

  • Maia Adar, Claremont McKenna College

You use personal, concrete, and realistic examples. I enjoy the fact that you referred to personal experiences throughout the text. As a college kid, I was surprised because most, if not all, textbooks feel as if they were written by robots. Nevertheless, I wanted to take a moment and thank you for opening my eyes to such a wonderful field of study and writing a textbook that was not only aesthetically pleasing, but also an understandable read. Keep up the excellent work.

  • Samuel James Zara, University of Texas at Austin

It is beautifully written, and much more entertaining than most other textbooks. I absolutely loved your use of quotes and cartoons as well as personal anecdotes to relay your points. It has made me much more appreciative of the field of psychology and has inspired me to lead a better lifestyle. I just wanted to thank you so very much. I've gained so many insights into my life. I am grateful for having taken this class and having the opportunity to read your textbook.

  • Uphoria Blackham, University of New Mexico

And here’s what instructors have to say about Psychology…

"I believe that this textbook is one of the finest textbooks that I have used during my 40 years of being a professor."

  • James Clopton, Texas Tech University

"This has been a fantastic textbook for my courses, and the overwhelming majority of students have told me that they actually like this textbook. Honestly, that says a great deal!"

  • Linda Seiford, Normandale Community College

"I’ve been teaching Intro Psych for 29 years, and a few years ago I decided that the text I was using, though excellent and comprehensive, was too detailed and overwhelming for a first-year course comprised mainly of first-year students. By sheer chance, I stumbled upon the Myers text, and leafed through it. I was so enthralled that I requested a copy, read the entire text and in 2012 adopted it for my courses. The major attraction is that the text is written in such a ‘student-friendly’ manner with examples that they can relate to. The text is not ‘stiff’, intimidating, overwhelming or laden with excessive detail. You feel as though you’re reading a ‘story’ rather than technical scientific materials."

  • Rebecca Jubis, York University

"I have used this book for a number of years and it continues to be a hit with my students."

  • Lisa Sinclair, University of Winnipeg

"I really enjoy this text. I’ve been using it for a few years now, and the best part about it is the incorporation of the SQ3R study method. I also use almost all of the online resources in some capacity. They have a really wide variety compared to many of the textbooks I have reviewed. Good use of images, clearly organized, good humor at times, great retrieval practice."

  • Erin Skinner, Langara College

"Overall, this text works for me. I enjoy reading David Myers’ work. I appreciate his sense of humor and his integrity. The depth of coverage is so complete that I can draw from certain materials to supplement other upper-level course, too. One of the absolute best features of the text is the supplemental materials that come with the Instructor Resources."

  • Elizabeth Freeman, University of South Carolina Upstate

"I continue to be very pleased with this textbook. With a very illustrative layout, I believe it plays well to the visual learning aspect of this class, and makes it easy for students to remember a page where the info was. It is also written in a fun, easy-to-navigate narrative."

  • Donald Rickgauer, California State University, Sacramento

"Overall, this text has provided a wonderful foundation for my classes."

  • Megan Kuhl, Louisiana Tech University
