《书目》(Booklist)书评

Gr. 4-6. A follow-up to Psychology for Kids (1990), which helps children learn about their own behavior, this book explores why others behave as they do. People, paper and pencils, and a copy machine to reproduce written tests are the principal requirements of the 40 experiments, which investigate such things as gender differences, learning skills, perception, and logic. Kincher adds a sprinkling of classic concepts and terms and guidelines for interpretation. She also makes it clear that the experiments aren't rigorously scientific, just fun and challenging. A great change from the usual "science experiment" book, this will leave some kids absolutely fascinated. (Reviewed July 1995)0915793830Stephanie Zvirin
