This textbook reflects Michael Passer and Ron Smith's experiences both as faculty who have taught the introductory psychology course several dozen times, and, earlier, as students whose own interest in psychology was sparked by instructors who brought the introductory course to life. Four goals have influenced their writing of this text: to show students that the world of behavior is fascinating; to help students think critically and analytically about behavior, dispelling common myths; to convey the intellectual excitement of studying behavior with scientific rigor; and to apply knowledge obtained from scientific inquiry to real-world problems. Users and reviewers of Passer and Smith's text overwhelmingly praise the authors for succeeding at these goals!

"Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behavior" imparts students with a scientific understanding of the field of psychology while showing them the impact on their day-to-day existence. A simple conceptual framework within the text emphasizes relations between biological, psychological, and environmental levels of analysis and portrays the focus of modern psychology. Through a variety of features, the text challenges students to think critically about psychology as a science and its impact on their lives. To help students study more effectively and efficiently, a groundbreaking adaptive questioning diagnostic and personalized study plan help students 'know what they know' while guiding them to master these concepts through engaging interactivities, exercises, and readings. Now available with "Connect Psychology", "Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behavior" follows the science behind psychology, leading students through the process of critical examination.

The goal of Psychology: Frontiers and Applications is to share with students the excitement the authors have found in the study of behavior and to make the course more exciting for you to teach. To achieve this goal, Drs. Passer and Smith present Psychology from a perspective that repeatedly emphasizes the linkages between basic science and applied science. Students discover the connections between theoretical research findings and practical solutions to problems in society. This approach teaches students to think more like psychologists- viewing the world of behavior in a more analytical, sophisticated way which includes considering the multiple factors that result in behavior.
