Hey Beth, I thought I was being an old fuddy-duddy by having students read these articles.... I would add Harlow's Love in Infant Monkeys Muzafer Sherif's Experiments in Group ConflictSolomon Asch's opinions and Social PressureMichael Gazzaniga's The Slit Brain and B.F. Skinner's Baby in a Box Jim (adjunct psych instructor looking for Florida job!)

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [tips] Re: Important articles for undergraduate reading.Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2006 15:53:21 -0500 I started to type out favorites, then went to a wonderful text called Sources: Notable Selections in Psychology, by Terry F. Pettijohn. (The only down side is that most of the articles are condensed.) It has all of the ones below, plus many others, for a total of 50. I'd think psychology majors should ask for it for Christmas/Hannukkah/Kwanzaa. Rosenthal and Jacobson's "Teachers' expectancies: Determinants of pupils' IQ gains" Sperry, "Hemisphere deconnection and unity in conscious awareness" Janet Shibley Hyde's "Children's understanding of sexist language" (I make that one required reading for many classes) Loftus, "Leading questions and the eyewitness report" Seligman, "Helplessness: On depression, development, and death" Rosenhan, "On being sane in insane places" Selye, "The evolution of the stress concept" Darley and Latane', "When will people help in a crisis?" Ainsworth, "Infant-Mother attachment" Kohlberg, "The child as a moral philosopher" Watson and Rayner, "Conditioned Emotional Reactions Gibson and Walk, "The visual cliff" Buss, "The strategies of human mating" Dion and Dion, "Belief in a just world and physical attractiveness stereotyping" and of course, Milgram's "Behavioral study of obedience" Wow, that was really fun. Kind of like looking through a favorite old scrapbook. Thanks for the challenge, Susan.

I mentioned to my research class that there are some basic articles in psychology that are frequently cited and should be read by all undergrad psychology majors. I mentioned Bandura’s Bobo doll study and Miller’s 7+- 2. What articles would you add to the list? Are there any contemporary articles that you see as potentially having the same status down the line? Susan J.
