Test Yourself: Biological Psychology cover

Test Yourself: Biological Psychology provides essential learning and practice through assessment for your psychology students. It enables year 1 and 2 undergraduates to assess their confidence and competence and prepare for the types of questions featured in their formal university assessments.

The book includes over 200 multiple-choice and extended multiple-choice questions, carefully designed to assess depth of knowledge. At the end of each chapter sample essay questions are provided, along with further guidance, to complement the multiple-choice questions and further test understanding. In addition, information is provided to help students make sense of their results and identify strengths and weaknesses.

Another excellent textbook for year 2 students taking the Brain and Behaviour level 5 module. It′s a good textbook for consolidating and testing knowledge. Our students would appreciate this book. -- Dr Anne Manyande * drupal *
This is an excellent book which will enable students to think about crucial topics in Biological Psychology providing tool to understand how they will be accessed in this filed. A true hands-on approach to the area which constitutes a great supplemental reading. -- Dr Antonina Pereira * drupal *

Great idea, will be recommending for revision. -- Dr Vanessa Parson * drupal *
Thank you for the copy. However, although I like the format and feel it would be very useful for some, the chapter headings do not share enough of the same lecture areas that I cover to make this justifiable for met to suggest my students buy it. Sorry and thank you again. -- Julia Robertson * drupal *
Too basic for the course I teach -- Ms Pam Blundell * drupal *
I liked the idea but I didn′t like the book when I received it. Too many of the questions use bizarre phrasing or terms that aren′t standard in the literature or in undergraduate texts, or refer to papers in a way that makes them unanswerable unless you have read those specific papers, or have a right′ answer that wasn′t quite right. It might work if you have read the accompanying text and know the idiosyncracies of the question-setters, but I wouldn′t use it as a stand-alone tool. -- Professor Jackie Andrade * drupal *
