Doing psychology experiments / David W. Martin, North Carolina State University.

By: Martin, David W, 1943- [author.]Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Australia ; Belmont, CA : Thomson/Wadsworth, 2008©2008 Edition: Seventh editionDescription: xiii, 363 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmContent type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 0495115770 (paperback)Subject(s): Psychology, Experimental -- Textbooks | Psychology -- Research -- TextbooksLOC classification: BF181 .M37 2008Review: A major strength of the text is the author's casual and first-person style of writing. The examples are simple, fun, and excellent representations of the concepts. I love the cartoons. They are so comical and could serve as nice memory aids for some of the concepts because they provide a visual for ideas that really don't have a representative icon the way other concepts in psychology do. Joy Drinnon, Milligan College Martin is uniquely and invitingly different. William Hardy, Sierra College This is a very neat little book. It's as close to a page-turner as one can find in this area-it's clearly written by an experimenter who speaks from experience. I was very happy to have reviewed it and I would recommend it to anyone interested in solid, comprehensive psychological research.
