Cutting-edge computational tools like artificial intelligence, data
scraping, and online experiments are leading to new discoveries about
the human mind. However, these new methods can be intimidating. This
textbook demonstrates how Big Data is transforming the field of
psychology, in an approachable and engaging way that is geared toward
undergraduate students without any computational training. Each
chapter covers a hot topic, such as social networks, smart devices,
mobile apps, and computational linguistics. Students are introduced to
the types of Big Data one can collect, the methods for analyzing such
data, and the psychological theories we can address. Each chapter also
includes discussion of real-world applications and ethical issues.
Supplementary resources include an instructor manual with assignment
questions and sample answers, figures and tables, and varied resources
for students such as interactive class exercises, experiment demos,
articles, and tools.
