Abstract

Reviews the book, Problems m Psychology by A. J. Snow (see record 1924-10275-000 ). In this small volume the author has collected approximately one thousand problems related to the major aspects of psychology. The author states that no attempt has been made to select the problems with the thought of developing a single psychological point of view. On the contrary care has been taken to direct the student's attention to different points of view. The problems are grouped into seventeen sections. The first sixteen of these bear chapter headings usually found in modern books on psychology. The last chapter containing two hundred and ten questions relates to the different fields of psychology, including animal, social, and general psychology. Good problems are always valuable in teaching any subject but are not always ready when the occasion demands. This collection of problems will tend to supply this deficiency and materially aid in making the teaching of psychology more concrete. In doing this, it will serve a definite pedagogical purpose. The Problems in Psychology will be found to be a valuable supplement to the text-book and references in any course in psychology. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
