Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This accessible and invaluable workbook-style reference guide will help your students smoothly make the transition from writing for composition classes to writing for psychology classes. In her new Edition of WRITING WITH STYLE, author Lenore T. Szuchman quickly and succinctly provides the basics of style presented by the Sixth Edition of the APA's Publication Manual. Dr. Szuchman's years of experience teaching writing-intensive courses give her an inside track on the trouble spots readers often encounter when writing papers and dealing with APA style. Her students played a large part in tailoring this guide's exercises to ensure an effective learning experience. The unique workbook format offers both a quick reference to APA style and interactive exercises that give users a chance to practice what they've learned.

Book News Annotation:

This update of the 2005 edition is described by Szuchman (Barry U., Miami) as a way for students to learn to write and present research papers in the style of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, either as a supplement or substitute text for writing requirements in psychology courses. Exercises involve using an auxiliary online research link and scanning APA journals for examples of particular rules and conventions. Boxed reminder tips appear throughout the book.

About the Author

Dr. Lenore Szuchman is a developmental psychologist who earned her Ph.D. at Florida International University. As an undergraduate, Dr. Szuchman majored in comparative literature at Brandeis University, and then went on to receive an M.A. in special education from the University of Texas at Austin. Today, at Barry University, Dr. Szuchman teaches writing-intensive courses, specifically Experimental Psychology and Advanced Experimental Psychology, that help students make the transition from other types of college writing to the writing required of scientific psychologists. In her classes students conduct experiments, write APA-style manuscripts, and develop independent research proposals. Dr. Szuchman also advises on master theses and senior projects. Feedback from her students called attention to the need for the exercises in this book.
