With the aim of helping readers make a psychological self-assessment, this book addresses a range of topics such as biology and behaviour, senses and perception, learning and memory, thinking, language, development, consciousness, personality and psychological disorders.
The popularity of psychological self-assessment examinations has been proven by their prevalence in the current media. These authors have spent several years collecting exams that “exist to help students begin to explore their knowledge and feelings about the field of psychology and their own role in the study of the mind,” and have collected them in this manual. Activities are designed with the introductory psychology student in mind, and address a wide range of topics such as biology and behavior, senses and perception, learning and memory, thinking, language, development, consciousness, personality, and psychological disorders. By applying the study of psychology to student's lives, this manual encourages increased interest in the material and provides a direct yet non-threatening way of measuring learning and achievements over time.
