In Jerry M. Burger and Gretchen M. Reevy's Personality, 11th edition the historical underpinnings of core theories and research come alive through biographical and contextual illustrations. These vivid stories and discussions challenge learners to critically consider the discipline's approach to diversity, research science, and its future as a holistic field of study. Concepts throughout the text are linked to cutting edge research on biological topics, the replication controversy, and today's complex world. Within the eleventh edition, interactive measures allow students to try personality science - and to understand it - firsthand.
