Infos

Discovery Labs for Cognition offers a variety of interactive experiments, animations, videos, exercises, and quizzes designed to help students understand important concepts and principles. Students will have an opportunity to act as researcher or test subject, giving them practical exposure to the field. Intended for use in cognitive psychology courses, the experiments allow students to compare their results to typical results and to class results, and in the process to learn about key principles. Discovery Labs for Cognition accompanies Cognition, 5e, by Smilek, Sinnett, and Kingstone, a comprehensive introduction to the field of cognitive psychology. Covering a wide range of topics such as perception, memory, attention, and language, and the common cognitive disorders associated with each, Cognition, 5e, applies real-life examples to the key theories in order to create an accessible yet comprehensive primer to the field.
