About this title

Synopsis:

Unlike other texts in the field, the author assists students in understanding the direct relevance of cognitive psychology to their everyday lives. The author describes the major theories and experimental findings in the field - then goes one step further to illustrate potential applications of these findings. The text is organized to reflect what has actually been learned from cognitive research: that people learn best when presented with hierarchical organization, an organization that divides information into categories which are further divided into smaller categories.
