Purchase options and add-ons

The Psychologist's Companion, 6th edition is written for students, young professionals, and even mid-career scholars. It is the most comprehensive guide available to both written and oral communication processes for academic psychologists. It covers the topics necessary for career success, including planning papers, writing papers, presenting data, evaluating one's papers, writing grant proposals, giving talks, finding a book publisher, doing job interviews, and doing media interviews. Because the book is in its sixth edition, it is market tested for success in reaching and engaging its readers. Two special (new) pedagogical features are 'Experience is the best teacher', which draws on the authors' personal experiences to help make the book more personalized and exciting to readers, and 'What's wrong here', which gives readers an opportunity for active learning while they read the book. The authors have written the book in a personable and often humorous style that will keep readers engaged.

    Reviewed in the United States on 4 April 2018
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    I was surprised at how little useful information there was in this book. The authors give only a bare bones explanation of how to conduct a literature search and literature review, as well as how to do empirical research. There's not much real guidance there. A large portion of the book is given to regurgitation of publication standards taken from the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition. Chapters are also devoted to misconceptions about writing psychology papers (too elementary here), comments about "content, language and style" that are already self-evident ("state clearly the problem you are addressing...start strong...tell readers why they should be interested...make sure the literature review is focused...), and tips about proofreading and preparing your manuscript (which you probably already know how to do). There was a section including topics on preparing poster presentations, writing grant proposals, finding a book publisher, and doing job and media interviews that might be helpful to some, but I'm not a professor at a university, so it didn't apply to me.
    I was really interested in how to write a good literature review. Another book, Doing a Literature Review in Health and Social Care by Helen Aveyard (2014) was a really excellent and thorough guide. I learned a lot about how to do a lit review using systematic methods (not quite the same as doing a complete systematic literature review). The only drawback was that it was not specific to the discipline of psychology.
