[The authors] offer a truly integrated treatment of experimental psychology -- discussing and clarifying methodilogy with well-selected examples of actual research. Five foundational chapters in Part I introduce readers to theory construction, observational and experimental research techniques, ethical issues, and reading and writing research reports. The ten chapters in Part II are each devoted to a specific content area - for example, psychopysics, perception, conditioning, and learning. In these chapters. the authors discuss and clarify methods within the context of actual research conducted in these specific content areas. [As a result], readers connect methodology with research and can see for themselves the issues and problems that occur in conducting real research. - Back cover
