A clear, engaging writing style that communicates the concepts of psychology, the excitement of the science, and what drives the people in this discipline. 

An integrated critical thinking theme, introduced in Chapter 1, woven throughout the narrative, within the "Thinking Critically About…" boxes, and now in the NEW “A Critical Thinker’s Review” feature at each chapter’s end.  Myers presents research as intellectual detective work, exemplifying an inquiring, analytical mindset.
 
A study system that continuously reinforces learning and critical thinking.  The text retains its popular system of study aids, integrated into an SQ3R (Survey, Question, Read, Rehearse, Review) structure that augments the narrative without disrupting it.  In each chapter:
• Numbered preview questions at the start of each major new topic define the learning objectives that will guide students as they read.
• Rehearse It quizzes at the end of each major section ask students to review what they have just learned.
• Periodic boxed features—“Thinking Critically About” and “Close Up”—take students deeper into key topics and issues, encouraging the development of critical thinking skills and introducing fascinating new applications.
• Chapter Review provides answers to the numbered Preview Questions.
• End-of-chapter pedagogy also includes “Terms and Concepts to Remember” and “Test Yourself” questions.

 
Up-to-date research that reflects the process of inquiry and shows students how the science of psychology continues to expand. 
 
Strong integration of cultural and gender diversity coverage, from the first chapter’s discussions of the social-cultural perspective and cultural/gender variations through the last chapter’s discussion of cultural and gender roles.  In between are dozens more gender and culture-related topics, addressing today’s more diverse classrooms.
