I love "40 studies that changed psychology" by Roger Hock. 40 classic
studies explained at the undergraduate level with additional sections
of significance (and updated findings (where is that research now).
Students also report really liking it.

Beth,
Thanks for the suggestion (and thanks to Stuart for his
suggestions). My problem is that Annual Editions emphasizes popular
press articles (e.g., Time magazine) with all the bias toward
"newsworthyness" one might expect. I'm surprised that no one else on
this list has responded. Am I the only one who teaches intro psyc with
supplementary readings that are recent, provocative, research reports
suitable for freshmen? Maybe so.

Re: A few good readings for Intro Psyc
I have used the Annual Editions, published by Dushkin, for several
different psychology subjects, and have always been very pleased with
them. At present, I'm using Taking Sides for Child Growth and
Development, and I miss my Annual Editions.....

I'm looking for a few "good" supplementary readings for
intro psyc. The students will have a chapter a week (30-35 pp) out of
their main intro psyc text. I would like one really good supplementary
reading to go along with each chapter--or maybe two and I'll let the
students choose. It can't be too long, should be easily understood,
and should be research oriented. My plan is to use these as the basis
of short homework essays.
So far, I like the report on "Influence of media violence on youth"
from Psychological Science in the Public Interest for the
developmental chapter. The Scientific American article on
slavery might be good for the social psyc topic.
I would really appreciate it if some TIPS participants who have
already developed such a reading list would save me some time and share
their lists. If not, maybe you can take a moment to suggest a few
good, timely, provocative readings from your own experience.
I'll post my final compilation back to the group, of course.
