Key studies in psychology (3rd ed)

This work offers students full summaries of 35 major research reports covering cognitive, social, developmental, abnormal and comparative psychology, biopsychology, culture, identity and individual differences.This third edition contains four new key studies.

The structure of each chapter has been changed so that the study is introduced before the detailed summary is presented; it is put into a theoretical, practical and/or historical context, and details of aims, hypotheses, method, design and procedure are provided.

The "Evaluation" section (previously called "Commentary") is sub-divided into four main sections with the intention of making the reader's task easier.
