I have also heard of instructors who will simply drop earlier quiz or essay
grades if subsequent grades are higher.

The learning curve for the instructor is quite steep, but less so for the
students who seem to catch on to its use effortlessly.
Overall, I would recommend Aplia's use in a stats course.

Be mindful of incorrect stereotypes based on media characterizations.
Have you personally ever heard a Canadian pronounce these words
differently than you would?
Along these lines, most fellow Canadians to whom I have spoken have
said that last weekend's Saturday Night Live sketch (

Tipsters:
As indicated on the subject line, I wonder if anyone knows of email
lists, similar to TIPS, which focus on a) the teaching of statistics to
Psych majors, or b) co-ordinating a department's thesis course, or c)
academic advising (particularly in Canadian Psych departments)?
Thanks in

Paul:
You are correct in pointing out that, for final forms of papers (e.g., student
papers, theses) it makes more sense for the Tables and Figures to appear in the
body of the manuscript (after the page on which they are mentioned) rather than
appended.
The question remains, does anyone know
Jim et al.,
A problem students run into is that they can't figure out how to change
page numbering from roman numerals (abstract, table of contents, etc.)
to Arabic numerals starting on the first page of the Introduction
section.
Another problem involves how to get Word to keep an entire page
Chris and others:
Actually, in Canada we do have advanced placement courses in high
school, for which students are given credit at some universities . At
Wilfrid Laurier University for example, non-Psych majors can get a half
credit (equivalent to a one term course) in Psychology for AP

I would speculate that a person claiming dissociative identities may
respond to a placebo differentially under various personalities, e.g.,
a placebo sedative administered to one personality may not have an
effect on another personality. But an active drug such as a sleeping
pill would

Don't most statistics textbooks include such a decision tree? I know
there's one on the inside back cover of Howell's Fundamental statistics
for the behavioral sciences, which I'll be using for my 2nd year stats
course next term.

One could always take 15 seconds on Google to find out how far is 260
kilometers (google 260 km in miles; answer is 161.6 miles), and/or take an
additional 30 seconds to learn how to convert km to miles (divide the number of
kilometers by 1.61: see
This database would be informative for students studying the history of
particular psychological concepts.

Yes, Michael, individuals purportedly regressed in age still may exhibit
non-age-consistent behavior, an argument against the veridicality of age
regression (although hypnotic proponents (e.g., Orne) may say that this is an
example of Trance logic). Hypnotic regression to the womb and to past

The only link I can think of regarding Mesmer, animal magnetism, and frogs,
would be the following:
Mesmer's concept of animal magnetism involved in one incarnation (circa 1780)
the use of charged iron rods submerged in a mesmerized tub called a baquet.
