psychology textbook

Behavioral science primer

A psychology textbook is a book designed for academic instruction in psychology, covering topics like cognition, behavior, development, and mental disorders.

The term often evokes introductory college courses: I sold back my psychology textbook at the end of the semester.

Psychology textbooks are known for their heft, high prices, and frequent new editions.
