What’s New and Updated

The Tenth Edition of Understanding Psychology contains a signifi cant amount of new 
and updated features and content refl ecting the advances in the fi eld and the sug-

Consciousness), and Chapter 9 (Intelligence) have undergone especially heavy revi-
sions. More than 1,000 new citations have been added, and most of them refer to 
articles and books published since 2008. 
In addition, this edition incorporates a wide range of new topics. The following

Students First: The Bottom Line
Based on extensive student feedback, systematic research involving a wide range of 
instructors, and endorsements received from reviewers at a variety of schools, I am 
confi dent that this edition refl ects what instructors want and need: a book that moti-
vates students to understand and apply psychology to their own lives. Understanding 
Psychology , Tenth Edition, is designed to expose readers to the content—and prom-
ise—of psychology, and to do so in a way that will nurture students’ excitement 
about psychology and keep their enthusiasm alive for a lifetime.
State-of-the-Art Support 
Materials for Students 
and Instructors
Resources available for use with this text support both new and veteran instructors, 
whether they favor traditional text-based instruction or a blend of traditional and 
electronic media. The Tenth Edition text and support materials provide complemen-
tary experiences for instructors and students. All of these components are built 
around the core concepts articulated in the text to promote a deeper understanding 
of psychology. This type of integration gives instructors the fl exibility to use any of 
the text-specifi c electronic or print materials knowing they are completely compatible 
with one another. Please see your McGraw-Hill sales representative for information 
on policy, price, and availability of the following materials.
