This was a well written textbook in that it had many summary sections and guide words and other areas which helps students with tests. It has many interesting examples from studies. It is an easily read book.
A must have for any cognitive psychology student. Matlin does a wonderful job of pulling together multiple resources and summarizing old and new discoveries. This was very helpful to me to fill in the blanks between different authors and theories.
Had to get this book for a course I was taking, but I found some inconsistencies between the book and the online testings. Apparently, fixing this is an issue for colleges, so they have to look at your individual explanations and try to fix the course testing interface as they go. I'd far more appreciate having tests be accurate than to feel obliged to offer free editing service to the same college to whom I'm paying a hefty tuition fee.
It's a textbook, so there's that.But for a textbook its interesting, and well written. Easy to read and understand.E-book version has a very comprehensive table of contents which made searching for specific topics significantly easier.
Yaaas, kindle version! Downloaded the app and poof. Now I have my textbook. One star deducted because I wish the rental would allow me to have the book a few more days longer so I can study during finals. But overall great.Thank you for having the cheaper price conpared to other sites and my college campus . My wallet thanks you.
Thank you for taking the time and making the effort in sending me my school book. Overall, I got an "a" in the class, and it's the little things, like my book arriving on-time, that helps all the more in managing my time for class and work. So again, thank you for getting this to me in a timely manner.
I bought this to try to help me with my Cognition class that required the book by Daniel Reisberg. It helped. But it wasn't great.
It's exactly what I needed and much cheaper than my bookstore!!
