From its beginnings to this remarkably fresh and current new edition, Myers and DeWall's Psychology has found extraordinarily effective ways to involve students with the remarkable research underlying our understanding of human behavior. But while the content and learning support evolves edition after edition, the text itself continues to be shaped by basic goals David Myers established at the outset, including to connect students to high-impact research, to focus on developing critical thinking skills, and to present a multicultural perspective on psychology, so students can see themselves in the context of a wider world.
This new edition offers 2100 research citations dated 2015-2020, making these the most up-to-date introductory psychology course resources available. With so many exciting new findings, and every chapter updated with current new examples and ideas, students will see the importance and value of psychological research, and how psychology can help them make sense of the world around them.
The abundant, high quality teaching and learning resources in LaunchPad, carefully matched to the text content, help students succeed, while making life easier and more enjoyable for instructors.

How Would You Know?
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.
Assess Your Strengths
For each of these activities, the authors start by offering a personalized video introduction, then ask students to assess themselves on the strength. 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.
"Thinking Critically About..." Infographic Activities
Like the infographics in the book itself, the online interactive versions have all been revised and updated for the new edition, plus there are two entirely new pieces: "Sexual Aggression" and "How to Be Persuasive."

Trusted author team
Psychology offers the quality of writing and resources that instructors and students can rely on. This quality extends to the student media and instructor resources which are author-driven and integrated with the textbook. Both David Myers and Nathan DeWall bring their teaching and research experience into every page of the text and also into the activities in LaunchPad.
A focus on teaching critical thinking.
Throughout the text, the authors help students think critically. By examining sources and evidence, students can apply psychology's concepts to their own lives and to their studies-using evidence-based principles to boost their relationships, academic success, stress-management, and so much more. "To teach critical thinking" has been the first of the "Eight Guiding Principles" that have guided the authors' work on this text since the first edition.
