An Introduction to Experimental Design in Psychology: A Case Approach

Johnson, Homer H.

Scott, Foresman Co.

Written for research methods and experimental design courses, this easy-to-understand, "hands-on" text uses actual cases to teach students the basic principles of experimental design. Over 100 cases are cited, drawn from professional literature and representing every major area of psychology, from animal studies to clinical observations and child psychology. Some cases are left for the student to analyze, actual experiments are analyzed in detail and design problems are included throughout the text. The fifth edition contains coverage of new ethical standards adopted by the American Psychological Association (APA), new sections on quasi-experimental studies and naturalist observations in Part One, a new chapter on methods for acquiring research data, a host of new articles in Part Two, and a section on basic statistics in the appendices.

The writer of this book continues to do what made the first four editions remain the most comprehensive book in the area of cognition. Readers will understand the main thrust of the book because of the historical perspective and the writing style. This new edition still retains its strengths that made it popular: it's well written with a humorous touch, but explores the critical issues in cognitive psychology through historical context as well as up-to-date research. It has more coverage of artificial intelligence than other books and contains a new focus on technology in the discipline and a new chapter on consciousness. New clinical psychologists looking for a quick, yet comprehensive reference.

The organization of this textbook follows an information processing sequence that starts with the perception of signals by the sensory/brain system to higher order processes such as memory, language, and thinking. The sixth edition removes some out of date studies, and adds recent findings in neurocognitive imaging technology. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
