Focusing on why things go right, The Science of Psychology: An Appreciative View helps students understand and appreciate psychology as a science and as an integrated whole. Informed by student data, the program extends these themes and enhances their pedagogical value by helping students through topics they find the most challenging and offering learning resources to master them. With a deep integration of cultural diversity, the text offers a “Guide to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” in the Preface, providing a chapter-by-chapter list of topics involving DEI issues and research. When paired with Connect, students will also benefit from Thematic Relevancy Modules (brief, thought-provoking modules tied to the APA’s IPI Student Learning Outcomes), Interactivities and Application-Based-Activities, Psych-at-Work videos (interviews with real people), the new and unique Immersive Brain, and more innovative resources to help further prepare them to be successful in this course.
