Developed to bridge the content covered in psychology survey
courses and more advanced undergraduate psychology curriculum,
Psychology as a Science and a Profession helps students better
understand psychological science and the variety of potential
careers available to them within the field. Throughout the text,
students are empowered to find relevant research articles in
scientific journals, recognize their predictable structure, and
comprehend the main points of a study. They learn how to evaluate
scientific claims made in the media and other non-scientific
outlets. In exploring these various facets of psychological
science, students gain a greater understanding of the discipline
and can better determine if a career in psychology is for them. The
book is organized into three sections. Unit I defines psychology
and psychologists' roles, presents the rationale for studying the
discipline, shares best practices to help students succeed in their
psychological studies, and provides an overview of careers in
psychology and other related areas. The chapters in Unit II begin
with an overview of scientific principles, next address strategies
for success in finding, reading, and writing psychological science,
and conclude with ethics in psychology. The final unit addresses
principles of research as applied to psychology. Psychology as a
Science and a Profession is an ideal textbook for courses and
programs in psychology, especially those emphasizing research
methodology.
