A Short Guide to Writing About Psychology, 3rd Edition (The Short Guide Series)

BUTPros:This has been a lifesaver. It has directions on writing every aspect of a paper, how a poster presentation should look (and you might think, like I did, that you should be able to figure out a poster on your own but there's actually a format that is expected!), and how you should go about proposals and presenting papers for publishing as a student - a subject I haven't seen covered in some other books I've been required to have for classes. They'll cover publishing when you have a degree, but this little book is so awesome I'm glad I bought it instead of renting!Cons:It's not really got any? It might be less useful for those who already have degrees and are pat on research/presenting findings. Not very mathematical but it's a guide to writing. Get you a Stats book if you need more on the math aspect.

Good book for intro to research methods. Wish it cost less though, and had a cost effective e book. There’s no way pearson needs this much $$.

This book is very simple and easy to read. Describes and outlines how to write in the APA style and it's a book that I have referred back to constantly when writing papers for all of my psych courses. I also have the Publication Manual of the APA but this book is much more concise and easier to understand. Would highly recommend for psych majors or others needing to write papers in APA style.

Textbook for my son's college course.

Very informative book! It also came in perfect condition.

I ordered it for my university course

My Instructor did not require us to read it so I never did. Although, it seemed like it would be a good read if I needed it.

I learn to write APA styleAll school papers in psychology should be written APA style. Each piece of information has its place in the article

Really helpful and clear book which is easy to follow and understand. The quality is a little more used and worn than I expected but I guess that highlights how useful it has been!
