The 13th edition of PSYCHOLOGY APPLIED TO MODERN LIFE: ADJUSTMENT IN THE 21ST CENTURY received a careful and thoughtful review for diversity, equity and inclusion. Following the recommendations of the 7th edition of the PUBLICATION MANUAL OF THE AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION, the text now relies on gender inclusive language. For example, the singular pronouns "he" and "she" have been replaced with the plural pronouns "they" and "their". Similarly, the dated term "freshmen" has been replaced with "first-year students".
PSYCHOLOGY APPLIED TO MODERN LIFE: ADJUSTMENT IN THE 21ST CENTURY provides a comprehensive introduction to the psychology of adjustment in a compact, 16-chapter format, complemented by a Personal Explorations Workbook.
The Personal Explorations Workbook is included in the back of the text -- after references and indexes -- to enable easier access by students. Experiential exercises, questionnaires and personality tests help students better understand themselves and their attitudes toward a variety of subjects. These exercises are printed on high-quality perforated paper that students can turn in -- giving instructors the flexibility to assign them as homework.
"Recommended Readings" throughout the text serve as mini book reviews of the most influential self-help books published. The reviews cover classic titles as well as current releases.
