Work more effectively and gauge your progress along the way! This Study Guide that is designed to accompany Vasta’s Child Psychology, 4th Edition contains chapter outlines, learning objectives, key terms, application exercises, critical thinking exercises, self-test questions, and practice exams. This guide was prepared by Alastair Younger of the University of Ottawa. Building on the strengths that have made it successful through three editions, this new Fourth Edition of Child Psychology presents a topical approach with an up-to-date, accurate, and balanced treatment of child psychology. The text captures the themes and emphases that characterize contemporary thinking in the field. In every respect--organization, emphases, and new material--this edition represents the most thorough revision of Child Psychology yet. In this Fourth Edition, new coauthor Shari Ellis brings her expertise on the sociocultural perspective on development. Together, Shari Ellis and Scott Miller continue Ross Vasta's vision for the text.
