Book is a foundational textbook designed to introduce students to the scientific evolution of psychology through exposition rather than as a manual for laboratory work. The text was specifically written to be accessible to students even if a physical laboratory was unavailable, emphasizing the thinking behind experimentation as much as the procedures themselves. It is organized into three primary areas: Foundations: Provides a brief historical survey of the field and an exposition of the Experimental Method as it applies to psychology. Methodology: Describes conventional "psychophysical methods" and details research design, including measurement and Scientific Inquiry. Applications: Devotes short chapters to typical investigations in specific areas such as perception, physiological psychology, and industrial and legal psychology.
