Preface
New to the Tenth Edition
The tenth
edition of How to Think Straight About Psychology has no major structural
revisions because a chapter reorganization occurred in a previous edition. The
content and order of the chapters remain the same. At the request of reviewers
and users, this edition remains at the same length as the ninth edition.
Readers and users have not wanted the book to lengthen and, indeed, it has not.
I have continued to update and revise the examples that are used in the book
while keeping those that are reader favorites.
Some dated
examples have been replaced with more contemporary studies and issues. I have
made a major effort to use contemporary citations that are relevant to the
various concepts and experimental effects that are mentioned. A large number of
new citations appear in this edition 172 new citations, to be exact!, so that
the reader continues to have up-to-date references on all of the examples and
concepts.
The goal of the
book remains what it always wasto present a short introduction to the
critical thinking skills that will help the student to better understand the
subject matter of psychology. During the past decade and a half there has been
an increased emphasis on the teaching of critical thinking in universities
Abrami et al., 2008; Sternberg, Roediger, & Halpern, 2006. Indeed, some
state university systems have instituted curricular changes mandating an emphasis on critical
thinking skills. At the same time, however, other educational scholars were
arguing that critical thinking skills should not be isolated from specific
factual content. How to Think Straight About Psychology combines these
two trends. It is designed to provide the instructor with the opportunity to
teach critical thinking within the rich content of modern psychology.

There exists a
body of knowledge that is unknown to most people. This information concerns
human behavior and consciousness in their various forms. It can be used to
explain, predict, and control human actions. Those who have access to this
knowledge use it to gain an understanding of other human beings. They have a
more complete and accurate conception of what determines the behavior and
thoughts of other individuals than do those
who do not have this knowledge.
Surprisingly
enough, this unknown body of knowledge is the discipline of psychology.
What can I
possibly mean when I say that the discipline of psychology is unknown? Surely,
you may be thinking, this statement was not meant to be taken literally.
Bookstores contain large sections full of titles dealing with psychology.
Television and radio talk shows regularly feature psychological topics.
Magazine articles quote people called psychologists talking about a variety of
topics. Nevertheless, there is an important sense in which the field of psychology is
unknown.
Despite much
seeming media attention, the discipline of psychology remains for the most part
hidden from the public. The transfer of psychological
knowledge that is taking place via the media is largely an illusion. Few people
are aware that the majority of the books they see in the psychology sections of
many bookstores are written by individuals with absolutely no standing in the
psychological community. Few are aware that many of the people to whom
television applies the label psychologist would not be
considered so by the American Psychological Association or the Association for
Psychological Science. Few are aware that many of the most visible
psychological experts have contributed no information to the
fund of knowledge in the discipline of psychology.
The flurry of
media attention paid to psychological
topics has done more than simply present inaccurate information. It has also
obscured the very real and growing knowledge base in the field of psychology. The
general public is unsure about what is and is not psychology and is unable to
independently evaluate claims about human behavior. Adding to the problem is
the fact that many people have a vested interest in a public that is either
without evaluative skills or that believes there is no way to evaluate psychological
claims. The latter view, sometimes called the anything
goes attitude, is one of the fallacies discussed in
this book, and it is particularly costly to the public. Many pseudosciences are
multimillion-dollar industries that depend on the lack of public awareness that
claims about human behavior can be tested. The general public is also unaware
that many of the claims made by these pseudosciences e.g., astrology, psychic
surgery, speed reading, biorhythms, therapeutic touch, subliminal self-help
tapes, facilitated communication, and psychic detectives have been tested and
proved false. The existence of the pseudoscience industry, which is discussed
in this book, increases the medias tendency toward
sensationalistic reporting of science. This tendency is worse in psychology
than in other sciences, and
understanding the reasons why this is so is an important
part of learning how to think straight about psychology.
This book, then,
is directed not at potential researchers in psychology but at a much larger
group: the consumers of psychological information. The target audience is the
beginning psychology student and the general reader who have encountered
information on psychological issues in the general media and have wondered how
to go about evaluating its validity.
This book is not
a standard introductory psychology text. It does not outline a list of facts
that psychological research has uncovered. Indeed, telling everyone to take an
introductory psychology course at a university is probably not the ultimate
solution to the inaccurate portrayal of psychology in the media. There are many
laypeople with a legitimate interest in psychology who do not have the time,
money, or access to a university to pursue formal study. More importantly, as a
teacher of university-level psychology courses, I am forced to admit that my
colleagues and I often fail to give our beginning students a true understanding
of the science of psychology. The reason is that lower-level courses often do
not teach the critical analytical skills that are the focus of this book. As
instructors, we often become obsessed with contentwith covering material. Every time we stray a
little from the syllabus to discuss issues such as psychology in the media, we
feel a little guilty and begin to worry that we may not cover all the topics
before the end of the term.
Consider the average introductory psychology textbook.
Many now contain between 600 and 800 multicolumned pages and reference
literally hundreds of studies in the published literature. Of course, there is
nothing wrong with such books containing so much material. It simply reflects the
increasing knowledge base in psychology. There are, however, some unfortunate
side effects. Instructors are often so busy trying to cram their students full
of dozens of theories, facts, and experiments that they fail to deal with some
of the fundamental questions and misconceptions that students bring with them
to the study of psychology. Rather than dealing directly with these
misconceptions, the instructors and the introductory textbook authors often
hope that if students are exposed to enough of the empirical content of
psychology, they will simply induce the answers to their questions. In short, the instructors
hope that students will recognize the implicit answers to these questions in
the discussions of empirical research in several content areas. All too often
this hope is frustrated. In a final review sessionor in office hours
at the end of the terminstructors are often shocked
and discouraged by questions and comments that might have been expected on the
first day of the course but not after 14 weeks: But psychology
experiments arent real life; what can they tell us?; Psychology just cant be a real science like chemistry, can it?; But I heard a therapist on TV say the opposite of what our textbook
said; I think this theory isstupidmy brother behaves just the opposite of what it says; Psychology is nothing more than common
sense, isnt it?; Everyone knows what anxiety
iswhy bother defining it? For many students, such questions are not implicitly answered
merely by a consideration of the content of psychology. In this book, I deal
explicitly with the confusions that underlie questions and comments such as
these.
Unfortunately,
research has shown that the average introductory psychology course does
surprisingly little to correct some of entering students misconceptions
about the discipline Keith & Beins, 2008; Kowalski & Taylor, 2009;
Standing & Huber, 2003; Taylor & Kowalski, 2004. This unfortunate fact
provides the rationale for this book. Psychology students need explicit instruction
in the critical thinking skills that will make them into independent evaluators
of psychological information.
Years after
students have forgotten the content of an introductory psychology course, they
will still use the fundamental principles covered in this book to evaluate
psychological claims. Long after Eriksons stages of development have been
forgotten, students will be using the thinking tools introduced in this text to
evaluate new psychological information encountered in the media. Once acquired,
these skills will serve as lifelong tools that will aid in the evaluation of
knowledge claims. First, they provide the ability to conduct an initial gross
assessment of plausibility. Second, these skills provide some criteria for
assessing the reliability of expert opinion.
Because the need
to rely on expert opinion can never be eliminated in a complex society, the
evaluation of an experts credibility becomes essential to knowledge
acquisition. Although these critical thinking skills can be applied to any
discipline or body of knowledge, they are particularly important in the area of
psychology because the field is so often misrepresented in the general media.
Many
psychologists are pessimistic about any effort to stem the tide of
misinformation about their discipline. Although this pessimism is, unfortunately,
often justified, this consumers guide to psychology was motivated by the idea that psychologists must not
let this problem become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Although I have
welcomed the opportunity to prepare several editions of How to Think
Straight About Psychology, it is unfortunately true that the reasons for the books existence are
just as applicable today as they were when I wrote the first edition. Media
presentations of psychology are just as misleading as they ever were, and
students in introductory psychology courses enter with as many misconceptions
as they ever did. Thus, the goals of all subsequent editions have remained the
same. These goals are shared by an increasing number of psychology instructors.
Stanford University psychologist Roger Shepard 1983 echoed all the concerns
that motivated the writing of the first edition of this text: Although most undergraduate psychology students may not go on to
scientific careers, one hopes that they acquire some facility for the critical
evaluation of the incomplete, naive, confused, or exaggerated reports of social
science findings to which they
will continue to be exposed by the popular media. . . . Widespread notions that
human behavior and mental phenomena can be adequately understood through
unaided common sense or, worse, by reference to
nonempirical pseudosciences, such as astrology, present
us with a continuing challenge p. 855.
The goal of this
book is to present a short introduction to the critical thinking skills that
will help students to better understand the subject matter of psychology and
better understand events in the world in which they live.
