"This book seeks to introduce the reader to the nature of basic psychological research. It deals only with experimental psychology, because it is in that area that psychology most closely approaches the objective methods of the natural sciences. One of the most powerful tools of science is the controlled experiment, and psychology has made remarkable progress in recent years toward refining its controlled experiments. After explaining the objectives, principles, and some of the research techniques of psychology, the book presents a series of experiments which any reader can perform, either at home or in school. They are designed to illustrate methods of investigating various problems--sensory perception, conditioning, animal and human learning, lie detection, communication, public-opinion polling, opinion-molding, and so on. It is hoped that these examples will provide a starting point from which interested students can go on to further study and original research in psychology. References for more advanced reading are given at the end of each chapter"--Foreword. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).
