Cognitive Psychology: Connecting Mind, Research and Everyday Experience

Connect the study of cognition to everyday life with Cognitive Psychology and its accompanying access to CogLab: The Online Cognitive Psychology Laboratory. Covering both the landmark studies and the cutting-edge research that define this fascinating field, this textbook includes concrete examples to help you understand the theories of cognition—driving home both the scientific importance of the theories and their relevance to your daily life. You' will leave this text with a true understanding of the "behind the scenes" activity that happens in the mind when you do such seemingly simple activities as perceiving, remembering, or thinking. You'll also automatically receive the Concept Maps Booklet, which presents the major concepts in the text using a visual approach.
