Purchase options and add-ons

Now updated to reflect the changes made from the fifth to the sixth edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, this book takes the reader step-by-step through crafting research questions or theses; executing library database searches; analyzing, evaluating, and synthesizing literature; drafting specific parts of a paper; and more.

Writing samples, including two full-length student papers in draft, marked-up, and final form, illustrate key concepts such as how to synthesize literature, how revision differs from editing, and how to recognize and avoid plagiarism. Guidance on how to communicate with instructors on a professional level is given, and the book shows examples of checklists and grading rubrics instructors might use.

A self-quiz to engage the reader's knowledge of APA style and format is also included, as well as example reference formats and other quick-reference style tools.

5.0 out of 5 stars Are you a psychology major? Want to become a better writer? BUY THIS BOOK!
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2013
Verified Purchase
I just completed my first year in a experimental psychology program, and because of that, I do a lot of writing. I have only recently finished reading this book, but it was of great value and wish I had read it a few years ago when I was an undergraduate student and decided to pursue a graduate degree. I do not mean to say that only undergraduate students can benefit from it; I have benefitted from it a great deal, in fact. This is a book for anyone in psychology: the student looking for a edge in writing his or her papers, the one who just wants to get some tips to make the process easier, the student who dreads writing and procrastinates until the last minute, or the writer who loves to write and just wants to become a little more savvy. Simply put, this book is for you if you are reading this and contemplating buying it—just buy it already.
