As author Bennett Schwartz says in Memory: Foundations and Applications, it is hard to imagine an aspect of psychology more fundamental than memory.

Produktbeschreibung
As author Bennett Schwartz says in Memory: Foundations and Applications, it is hard to imagine an aspect of psychology more fundamental than memory. This unique text covers key memory models, theories, and experiments, but goes a step further to demonstrate how students can apply these concepts to their everyday lives and improve their own ability to learn and remember. A new, three-pronged organization opens the text with an overview of the psychological science of Memory, builds expertise in advanced topics, and then allows the reader to think about how memory research can benefit society. Neuroscience research is integrated throughout each chapter to demonstrate our understanding of where memory processes occur and how researchers use data to shape memory theories. Additional updates to the the Fourth Edition include a chapter on memory science's relevance to the legal system, a chapter on memory issues in psychiatric disorders, a reorganized chapter on memory development, andan enlarged section on prospective memory now combined with the chapter on metamemory.

Rezensionen
Bennett L. Schwartz s book, Memory: Foundations and Applications is the most comprehensive text on cognitive memory and application that I have found and used in both my graduate and undergraduate courses. Beginning at the basic and fundamental understanding of the types of memory and continuing to the more advanced discovery of up to date application, this text is perfect for really knowing how memory systems work.
