Caracteristici

Preview Questions before major chapter subsections pose questions that are answered in the reading. The Chapter Review repeats and answers these same questions
Think About It asks students to pause and think critically about a particular topic from the perspective of a psychological scientist
The boxed In Your Life questions appear throughout each chapter in the margins to help students identify applications of the material to their own lives
What Do You Know? appears at the end of each section so students can immediately test their understanding of the material through the first three levels of Bloom's taxonomy
Questions for Discussion in the end-of-chapter material support the higher levels of Bloom's taxonomy through Level 5 Synthesis
An end-of-chapter Self-Test consisting of 15 multiple-choice questions is designed to challenge students through the first four levels
