About

50 Great Myths of Popular Psychology uses popular myths as a vehicle for helping students and laypersons to distinguish science from pseudoscience. Uses common myths as a vehicle for exploring how to distinguish factual from fictional claims in popular psychology. Explores topics that listeners will relate to, but often misunderstand, such as 'opposites attract', 'people use only 10% of their brains', and 'handwriting reveals your personality'. Provides a 'mythbusting kit' for evaluating folk psychology claims in everyday life. Teaches essential critical thinking skills through detailed discussions of each myth. Includes over 200 additional psychological myths for listeners to explore. Contains an Appendix of useful Web Sites for examining psychological myths.
