theories, and models. Using real-world scenarios and engaging everyday
examples this book offers clear explanations of how the findings of
cognitive psychologists have been put to use. The book explores all of
the major areas of cognitive psychology, including attention,
perception, memory, thinking and decision making, as well as some of
the factors that affect cognitive processes, such as drugs and
biological cycles. Now in full colour, this new edition has been
thoroughly updated to include cutting-edge research and theories.
There are also new chapters on perceptual errors and accidents, the
influence of emotion, and the role of cognitive factors in music and
sport. Written by well-respected experts in the field, this textbook
will appeal to all undergraduate students of cognitive psychology, as
well as professionals working in the areas covered in the book, such
as education, police work, sport, and music.
