MemoryAlan Baddeley, Michael W. Eysenck, Royal Holloway University of London, UK; Michael C. Anderson, University of St. Andrews, UK

“This book represents an exciting new text on human memory. The authors weave basic research from behavioral studies of memory with the latest in neuroscientifi c thinking. The writing is accessible and should make it a popular text with students and professors alike. I strongly recommend it.” - Henry L. Roediger, III, Washington University in St. Louis

“Baddeley, Eysenck and Anderson are among the best known and most widely respected cognitive psychologists internationally. The

result of their collaboration is a textbook that is comprehensive and soundly scientifi c, while remaining engaging and highly accessible to all students of human memory.” - Robert H. Logie, University of EdinburghPeople seem to be intrigued by memory, and by its sometimes spectacular failure in (for example) people with amnesia. However, students of memory sometimes fail to retain this fascination. The reason is clear: in order to study memory we must carry out carefully-designed experiments, which can seem boring even when they are exciting science. Fortunately, we now know enough about memory to relate laboratory studies to the world beyond. In other words, our scientifi c knowledge of memory and how it works can help us to explain those aspects of memory that most people fi nd of greatest interest.This book presents a thorough, accessible and appealing overview of the fi eld, written with students in mind, by some of the world’s leading researchers. It starts with a brief overview and explanation of the scientifi c approach to memory before going on to discuss the basic characteristics of the various memory systems and how they work. Summaries of short-term and working memory are followed by chapters on learning, the role of organization in memory, the ways in which our knowledge of the world is stored, retrieval, and on intentional and motivated forgetting.The latter half of the book involves the broader application of our basic understanding of memory, with chapters on autobiographical memory, amnesia, and on memory in childhood and aging. After chapters discussing eyewitness testimony and prospective memory, a fi nal chapter addresses an issue of great importance to students – how to improve your memory.Each chapter of the book is written by one of the three authors, an approach which takes full advantage of their individual expertise, style and personality. This enhances students’ enjoyment of the book, allowing them to share the authors’ own fascination with human memory.

Contents1. What is Memory? 2. Short-term Memory. 3. Working Memory. 4. Learning. 5. Episodic Memory: Organizing and Remembering. 6. Semantic Memory and Stored Knowledge. 7. Autobiographical Memory. 8. Retrieval. 9. Incidental Forgetting. 10. Motivated Forgetting. 11. Amnesia. 12. Memory in Childhood. 13. Memory and Aging. 14. Eyewitness Testimony. 15.

Talking the TalkLanguage, Psychology and Science

Trevor HarleyUniversity of Dundee, UK

“A road trip through the varied landscape of psycholinguistics – including photos! Harley’s approachable style and frequent personal asides make the esoteric aspects of the fi eld understandable, and he shows how everyday phenomena, such as “slips of the tongue” or children’s babblings, provide deep insight into how language works. Despite containing some fun topics, the book does not dumb down the science; it includes the latest fi ndings from neuroscience and computational modeling and can function as

quick reference for the expert as well as a thorough introduction for anyone who has marveled at our ability to speak.” - Gary Dell, University of Illinois at Urbana-ChampaignLanguage makes us human, but how do we use it and how do children learn it? Talking the Talk is an introduction to the psychology of language. Written for the reader with no background in the area or knowledge of psychology, it explains how we actually “do” language: how we speak, listen, and read.This book provides an accessible and comprehensive introduction to psycholinguistics, the study of the psychological processes involved in language. It shows how it’s possible to study language experimentally, and how psychologists use these experiments to build models of language processing. The book focuses on controversy in modern psycholinguistics, and covers the all the main topics, including how children acquire language, how language is related to the brain, and what can go wrong – and what can be done when something does go wrong. Structured around questions that people often ask about language, the emphasis of Talking the Talk is how scientifi c knowledge can be applied to practical problems. It also stresses how language is related to other aspects of psychology, particularly in whether animals can learn language, and the relation between language and thought. Lively and amusing, the book will be essential reading for all undergraduate students and those new to the topic, as well as the interested lay reader.

The Psychology of LanguageFrom Data to Theory

Third Edition

Trevor HarleyUniversity of Dundee, UK

“I want this book for me, not just for my students. For the student, it’s an exceptionally thorough, but lively, introduction to language use in a wider context. For me, it’s a valuable reminder of psycholinguistics’ evolution from its concerns with the psychological reality of grammar, to its current spot at the center of modern cognitive neuroscience.” - Gary S. Dell, University of Illinois at Urbana-ChampaignThe Psychology of Language contains everything the student needs to know about

the psychology of language, including how we acquire, understand, produce, and store language. The third edition contains chapters on how children learn to read, and how language is used in everyday settings. It also describes recent research on the impact of new techniques of brain imaging. The text is comprehensive and written in a lively and accessible style. It covers all the main topics in this complex fi eld, focusing on reading, writing, speaking, and listening in both adult and child language. There is an emphasis on language processing as well as language production and coverage of the social basis of language. The text covers recent connectionist models of language, describing complex ideas in a clear and approachable manner. Following a strong developmental theme, the text describes how children acquire language (sometimes more than one), and also how they learn to read. The Psychology of Language also demonstrates how language is related to the brain and to other aspects of cognition. Supplementary materials are available to accompany the textbook, which include:

Chapter-by-chapter lecture slides •

An interactive chapter-by-chapter multiple-choice question test bank •

Multiple-choice questions in paper and pen format.• The supplementary resources are available on CD-ROM and online, and are free of charge to adopters.The Psychology of Language assumes no prior knowledge other than a grounding in the basic concepts of cognitive psychology. This third edition of this bestselling textbook will be essential reading for any student of cognition, psycholinguistics or the psychology of language. It will also be useful for those on speech and language therapy courses.

ConsciousnessThe Science of Subjectivity

Antti RevonsuoUniversity of Turku, Finland

“Everybody talks about consciousness, but hardly anyone has written a textbook about it that could be used as the basis for a survey course. Revonsuo’s book closes that gap.” - John F. Kihlstrom, University of California, Berkeley

“Revonsuo’s book is a major new discussion of consciousness, suitable for a wide range of readers. It is written in an admirably clear and scholarly way, and covers a wide range of issues thrown up by recent philosophical, psychological and neuroscientifi c research

on consciousness. It would be excellent as a primary text for many introductory courses on consciousness, and I think this book will quickly become a major text in the area.” - Steve Torrance, Visiting Senior Research Fellow, Centre for Research in Cognitive Science, University of SussexThe study of consciousness is recognized as one of the biggest remaining challenges to the scientifi c community. This book provides a fascinating introduction to the new science that promises to illuminate our understanding of the subject. It covers all the main approaches to the modern scientifi c study of consciousness, and also gives the necessary historical, philosophical and conceptual background to the fi eld. Current scientifi c evidence and theory from the fi elds of neuropsychology, cognitive neuroscience, brain imaging and the study of altered states of consciousness such as dreaming, hypnosis, meditation and out-of-body experiences is presented. The book provides an integrative review of the major existing philosophical and empirical theories of consciousness and identifi es the most promising areas for future developments in the fi eld. It offers a readable and timely introduction to the science of consciousness for anyone interested in this compelling area, especially undergraduates studying psychology, philosophy, cognition, neuroscience and related fi elds.

Understanding ConsciousnessSecond Edition

Max VelmansEmeritus Professor of Psychology at Goldsmiths, University of London, and Visiting Professor of Consciousness Studies at the University of Plymouth, UK

“If you’re interested in getting a good overview of contemporary approaches to understanding consciousness, both philosophical and experimental, I can recommend Understanding Consciousness, Second Edition. … You couldn’t ask for anything more comprehensive.” - Charles T. Tart, Professor, Institute of Transpersonal Psychology, Palo Alto CA, and Professor Emeritus, Psychology, University of California, Davis

“This is an important book. It offers an excellent review of the whole range of philosophical and scientifi c attempts to understand consciousness, interwoven with a compelling account of the author’s own preferred option (i.e., ‘refl exive monism’), for which he is already well known. This further account of his views will be welcomed by all concerned.” - Christopher M.H. Nunn, Associate Editor of the Journal of Consciousness StudiesUnderstanding Consciousness, Second Edition provides a unique survey and evaluation of consciousness studies, along with an original analysis of consciousness that combines scientifi c fi ndings, philosophy and common sense. Building on the widely praised fi rst edition, this new edition adds fresh research, and deepens the original analysis in a way that refl ects some of the fundamental changes in the understanding of consciousness that have taken place over the last ten years. As the structure of the book moves from a basic overview of the fi eld to a successively deeper analysis, it can be used both for those new to the subject and for more established researchers. Understanding Consciousness tells a story with a beginning, middle and end in a way that integrates the philosophy of consciousness with the science. Overall, the book provides a unique perspective on how to address the problems of consciousness and as such, will be of great interest to psychologists, philosophers, and neuroscientists.

Foundations of Sensation and PerceptionSecond Edition

George MatherUniversity of Sussex, UK

Praise for the fi rst edition: “Mather has included some excellent pedagogical features that put this book in a class by itself. ... Moreover, Mather’s conversational and interactive style of writing results in a book that is enjoyable as well as informative ... Would I use it for my S&P course? The answer is a resounding ‘yes’.” - Stephen F. Davis, in PsycCRITIQUESThis comprehensive introduction to Sensation and Perception has been highly praised for its unique approach, which begins with the minor senses and progresses to vision.

The book begins with an introductory chapter on general physiological, perceptual and theoretical principles which gives the reader the conceptual tools to build a clear understanding of how we perceive the world. The next two chapters then fl esh out basic topics such as transduction, receptive fi elds, and sensory adaptation via coverage of the minor senses (touch, balance, smell, and taste). Later chapters on hearing and vision build on these foundations. This approach allows students to thoroughly grasp the fundamental principles in relation to the relatively simple sensory systems before moving on to the more complex topics. Unlike other perception textbooks, this has a whole chapter on Individual Differences, which considers potential sources of difference such as age, sex, expertise and culture. New to the second edition:

Cognition and EmotionFrom Order to Disorder

Second Edition

Mick Power, University of Edinburgh, UKTim Dalgleish, Medical Research Council Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, Cambridge, UK

“The authors should be commended for undertaking this very important and ambitious endeavour. What sets this text apart from other books on cognition and emotion is its attempt to describe the philosophical and historical underpinnings of work on emotion.” - Naomi Koerner, Concordia University, in Canadian Psychology/Psychologie canadienneThe relationship between thinking and feeling has puzzled philosophers for centuries, but more recently has become a dominant focus

in psychology and in the brain sciences. Cognition and Emotion, Second Edition examines everything from past philosophical to current psychological perspectives in order to offer a novel understanding of both normal emotional experience and the emotional disorders.2007: 7x10: 456ppHb: 978-0-415-37353-1: £45.00 Pb: 978-0-415-37354-8: £24.95 www.psypress.com/9780415373548

Fundamentals of CognitionThird Edition

Michael EysenckRoyal Holloway, University of London, UK

“The chapters provide an excellent coverage of the different areas within cognitive psychology: not only are the traditional areas dealt with (memory, perception, language) but also areas which are often overlooked by comparable textbooks (human judgement, decision-making). This text is an excellent source for students of cognitive psychology who are looking for an introduction to the fi eld and a broad summary of research issues that exist within it. Eysenck has a reputation for accessible writing and this text does not

disappoint. The chapters are well structured and clear. I enjoyed the writing style which was informative and readable; jargon was clearly explained.” - John Parkinson, Lecturer in Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, University of Wales BangorHow come some people always remember a face? Is it really possible to do two things at once? Fundamentals of Cognition is a clear and reader-friendly introduction that will help students understand and answer these kinds of questions. Taking his cue from modern cognitive psychology, Mike Eysenck explores the key processes that allow us to make sense of the world around us. Whether we are aware of their workings or not, our abilities in attention, perception, learning, memory, language, problem solving, thinking and reasoning all help us to make decisions about how to cope with everyday life. This book takes a close look at all the relevant key fi ndings and issues. It also offers accessible explanations of the more complex debates which spring up around them.Fundamentals of Cognition guides students through all the classic topics in cognitive psychology. New research from approaches in cognitive science and cognitive neuroscience is integrated and evaluated in a lively (but systematic) approach. The book provides a broad overview of current thinking and a thorough evaluation of the various theoretical approaches to basic cognitive processes. Written with introductory-level students in mind, it can be read easily by those with no previous knowledge of cognitive psychology. However, it also includes directions for more detailed and advanced study.

Animal Learning and CognitionAn Introduction

Third Edition

John M. PearceUniversity of Cardiff, UK

“There are very few instances in which one of the world’s leading researchers is willing to write a textbook in his area of expertise, and even fewer where the resulting text is beautifully clear and interesting. Pearce’s text is of just this quality; any student fortunate enough to read it will be exposed to a lucid, entertaining, and stimulating introduction to what we know about animal learning and cognition.” - David Lieberman, University of StirlingAnimal Learning and Cognition: An

Introduction provides an up-to-date review of the principal fi ndings from more than a century of research into animal intelligence. The third edition has been expanded to take account of the many exciting developments that have occurred over the previous ten years.The book opens with a historical survey of the methods that have been used to study animal intelligence, and follows by summarizing the contribution made by learning processes to intelligent behavior. Topics include Pavlovian and instrumental conditioning, discrimination learning, and categorization. The remainder of the book focuses on animal cognition and covers such topics as memory, navigation, social learning, language and communication, and knowledge representation. Expanded areas include extinction (to which an entire chapter is now devoted), navigation in insects, episodic memory in birds, imitation in birds and primates, and the debate about whether primates are aware of mental states in themselves and others. Issues raised throughout the book are reviewed in a concluding chapter that examines how intelligence is distributed throughout the animal kingdom.The broad spectrum of topics covered in this book ensures that it will be of interest to students of psychology, biology, zoology, and neuroscience. Since very little background knowledge is required, the book will be of equal value to anyone simply interested in either animal intelligence, or the animal origins of human intelligence.This textbook is accompanied by online instructor resources which are free of charge to departments who adopt this book as their text. They include chapter-by-chapter lecture slides, an interactive chapter-by-chapter multiple-choice question test bank, and multiple-choice questions in paper and pen format.

Behavior Analysis and LearningFourth Edition

W. David Pierce, University of Alberta, CanadaCarl D. Cheney, Utah State University, USA

This essential textbook covers the basic principles in the fi eld of behavior analysis and learned behaviors, as pioneered by B.F. Skinner. It provides an advanced introduction to operant conditioning from a very consistent Skinnerian perspective. It covers a range of principles from basic respondent conditioning through applied behavior analysis into cultural design. Elaborating on Darwinian components and biological connections with behavior, the book treats the topic from a consistent worldview of selectionism. The functional

relations between the organism and the environment are described, and their application in accounting for old behavior and generating new behavior is illustrated.Expanding on concepts of past editions, the fourth edition provides updated coverage of recent literature and the latest fi ndings. There is increased inclusion of biological and neuroscience material, as well as more data correlating behavior with neurological and genetic factors.The material presented in this book provides the reader with the best available foundation in behavior science and is a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in psychology or other behavior-based disciplines. In addition, a website of supplemental resources for instructors and students makes this edition even more accessible and student-friendly.

Cognitive AssessmentAn Introduction to the Rule Space Method

Kikumi K. TatsuokaDistinguished Research Professor, Emeritus, Teachers College, Columbia University, USASeries: Multivariate Applications

“Dr. K. Tatsuoka’s Rule Space Methodology is innovative and illuminating in its ability to assess and delineate the underlying pattern of cognitive skills and knowledge for individuals from a set of test scores.” - Lisa Harlow, University of Rhode Island This book introduces a new methodology for the analysis of test results. Free from ambiguous interpretations, the results truly demonstrate an individual’s progress. The methodology is ideal for highlighting patterns derived from test scores used in evaluating

progress. Dr. Tatsuoka introduces readers to the Rule Space Method (RSM), a technique that transforms unobservable knowledge and skill variables into observable and measurable attributes. RSM converts item response patterns into attribute mastery probabilities. RSM is the only up-to-date methodology that can handle large scale assessment for tests such as the SAT and PSAT. RSM is also used for medical diagnoses, genetics research, and to help classify music into various states of emotions for treating mental problems. Intended for researchers and graduate students in quantitative, educational, and cognitive psychology, this book also appeals to those in computer science, neuroscience, medicine, and mathematics. The book is appropriate for advanced courses on cognometrics, latent class structures, and advanced psychometrics as well as statistical pattern recognition and classifi cation courses taught in statistics and/or math departments.

on long-standing issues that perplexed and fascinated psychological scientists over the years, and found new framings with the introduction of new methods and techniques of inquiry.” - Arie W. Kruglanski, University of Maryland

Aimed at those new to the subject, Fundamentals of Psychology is a clear and reader-friendly textbook that will help students explore and understand the essentials of psychology. This text offers a balanced and accurate representation of the discipline through a highly accessible synoptic approach, which seamlessly brings together all the various related topics.
