This clear, engaging presentation embraces a scientific approach to studying behavior with updated content, numerous learning features and current examples that apply to your everyday life. Timely research demonstrates the relevance of content as you study concepts such as "nature via nurture" and the co-dependency of ontogeny and phylogeny.

New learning objectives direct your attention to the most important content, while updated Concept Checks ensure your understanding before you progress. In addition, all content corresponds with the latest edition of the APA Publication Manual. Trust this book's unique approach as you master concepts behind learning, behavior and change." --
