Summary: "Just because we "think" something doesn't make it true. Psychology: Perspectives and Connections guides students in moving beyond what may seem obvious, to reevaluating the thoughts and beliefs they bring to the course. Students will learn to challenge their assumptions, understand the elements of scientific research, and recognize that in psychology, no one perspective tells the whole story. CHALLENGING ASSUMPTIONS Questioning assumptions is the first step in thinking scientifically. While building a foundation in the concepts and princi-ples of psychology, our goal as teachers and authors has always been to encourage students to examine their precon-ceptions (as well as those held by others) and understand that there is often more than one plausible explanation for a given phenomenon. THINKING SCIENTIFICALLY Throughout the Psychology"-- Provided by publisher.
