Exploring Psychology
If it is true that “whoever walks with the wise becomes wise” then I am wiser for all
the wisdom and advice received from my colleagues. Aided by thousands of consultants
and reviewers over the last two decades, this has become a better, more accurate
book than one author alone (this author, at least) could write. As my editors and I
keep reminding ourselves, all of us together are smarter than any one of us.
My indebtedness continues to each of the teacher-scholars whose inf luence I
acknowledged in the eight previous editions, to the innumerable researchers who
have been so willing to share their time and talent to help me accurately report their
research, and to the 1155 instructors and students who took the time to offer feedback
over the phone, in a survey, or at one of our face-to-face focus groups. I also
appreciated having detailed consultation on the Memory chapter from Janie Wilson
(Georgia Southern University, and Vice President for Programming of the Society of
the Teaching of Psychology).
Nathan DeWall (University of Kentucky) offered valuable input as a special
contributor for this edition. He assisted with the revision of the Need to Belong
section in Chapter 10, Motivation and Emotion; the Personal Control discussion in
Chapter 11, Stress, Health, and Human Flourishing; and the Aggression discussion in
Chapter 13, Social Psychology.
Amy Himsel (El Camino College), a gifted teacher with a keen ability to
connect with students, guided creation of the self-test study aids found throughout
this new edition.
