Introduction to General Psychology 

Welcome to our website! Here you will find a free and comprehensive Introduction to General Psychology textbook, combining new chapters written under sponsorship of two Affordable Learning Georgia grants with existing chapters of an OpenStax textbook. Check out the Author's Preface for more about the unique features of our text, and some of the story about how this text came to be. We have identified our completely new chapters with a big arrow in front, and chapters to which we made substantive additions with a little arrow, so you’ll know what’s new. We hope that you enjoy browsing through our work, and we hope especially that if you are a student in a class using this text that it is a worthy gift to you. 

We have formatted these materials to be viewable on full-screen and mobile devices. On full-screen devices, they are best viewed on Chrome or Firefox browsers. On mobile devices, they are best viewed when the Google Docs app is installed on Android or iPhone/iPad devices, regardless of browser being used.

UWG students may Copy-Paste sections of the chapters (up to 20,000 characters at a time) into ReadSpeaker TextAid in CourseDen to have the text read to you or to save the audio mp3 for later listening.

NOTE: You may download and print and make notes on each chapter for you, but the online editing is for us to do, so please don't request edit access.
