Educational Psychology

Understanding Psychology provides broad coverage of the field of psychology, including the theories, research, and applications that form the core of the discipline. The book discusses the various aspects of growth and development, specifically during childhood and adolescence, and accords due importance to the cognitive aspect of human behaviour. Attempts have been made in the text to integrate theory and applications of the principles of psychology by highlighting the implications of the related knowledge. The book is ideally suited for the UG courses but can also be a valuable reference for teachers, teacher-trainees, and practising counsellors at various levels of education.
