内容説明

Writing for Psychology offers a concise, yet thorough guide to successful writing for psychology courses. This theoretically grounded resource covers experimental laboratory reports, term papers (non-experimental research reports), essay exams, and oral presentations. Samples explain effective note taking, annotation of research materials, the keeping of reading-response and research logs, and methods of varying written style. The book also includes a section on dealing with the most common errors in grammar, punctuation, and spelling as well as a concise guide to APA style.
