Klein, Mississippi State University Incorporating the latest scholarship and applications in the fi eld, learning: principles and Applications, Seventh Edition, shows students the relevance of basic learning processes through real-world examples, vignettes, critical thinking questions, and applications. Acclaimed for its accessible and thorough coverage of both classic and current studies of animal and human research, the book is known for its scholarship and easy-to-read style and the introduction of concepts and theories within the framework of highly effective pedagogical elements. The Seventh Edition has been updated and reorganized into twelve chapters to refl ect recent changes in the fi eld. NEw AND KEy fEATurES • A special focus on cognition refl ects cutting-edge research and new directions in the fi eld. • Chapter-opening vignettes help students understand the link between chapter content and your everyday life. • Application sections enhance the relevance of the concepts presented in the text, demonstrating that the behaviors described are not just laboratory phenomena. • "Before You Go On" sections emphasize mastery of key concepts throughout each chapter and make an ideal study guide when preparing for exams. • Boxed biographies of leading researchers in learning provide an up-close look at prominent thinkers and their contributions to the fi eld. • Scenario-based "Critical Think- ing Questions" at the end of each chapter give students an opportunity to creatively apply one or more of the chapter's major concepts to situations they may encounter in the real world.

Schwartz, Florida International University Designed to make memory research come to life through the use of examples that students can use in their everyday lives, the Second Edition provides an in-depth exploration into the science and the methodology of memory. Author Bennett Schwartz includes separate chapters on metamemory, biology of memory, and false memory—critical to a comprehensive understanding of memory science—to enhance the book's accessible introduction to the fi eld. Throughout the book, coverage of cognitive psychology and neuroscience is integrated to help students make the connection between cognitive theory and research and the places in the brain where memory processes occur. Substantive changes in each chapter and 156 new references bring this new edition completely up to date with latest discoveries in the study of human memory. NEw AND KEy fEATurES • A greater emphasis on the study of memory from a scientifi c viewpoint • The latest fi ndings, studies, and techniques are covered throughout • Greater attention given to key top- ics, including retrieval testing, the interactions of music and memory, sensory memory, implicit memory, and other non-conscious memory systems • Examples or real-life stories that begin each chapter and are woven throughout to illustrate the relevance and importance of key concepts • Up-to-date coverage of research and theory focusing on cognitive experiments, neuroscience, patients with memory disorders, the areas of the brain involved in memory, and the cognitive theory that links this research together • Unique applied coverage including how the science of memory can be applied to education, police investi- gations, courtrooms, memory clinics, and everyday life. • Highlighted mnemonic hints throughout the book and in an entire chapter on memory improve- ment CONTENTS 1.
